AJC Advances the Consensus Definition of Antisemitism

AJC saw the strategic importance of a universal definition of antisemitism decades ago — long before today ’ s deplorable attempts to politicize antisemitism . In 2005 , AJC collaborated with experts to develop the Working Definition of Antisemitism , outlining what constitutes antisemitism , including antisemitism as it relates to Israel .
This definition has since been adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance ( IHRA ). It is now considered the gold standard and , thanks in part to AJC ’ s longstanding advocacy efforts , has been endorsed by :
1,200 + governments , the majority of U . S . states , and civil society organizations , including :
Council of the European Union
