Campaign Against Antisemitism Attends Global Forum for Combating Antisemitism

Campaign Against Antisemitism attended the Global Forum for Combating Antisemitism in Jerusalem at the invitation of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Forum was attended by senior representatives of governments and NGOs engaged in the fight against antisemitism and was opened by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. We took the opportunity to continue to build the international partnerships necessary to advance our projects, particularly regarding social media.

Punishing antisemitic hate crime on social media requires that social networks cooperate with the British authorities. It is particularly important that social networks provide UK police forces with evidence such as IP addresses, which can be the key to identifying perpetrators.
