Swansea University

University Definition not adopted

The University has not adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism.

The University has told Campaign Against Antisemitism: “Following full consideration in the University’s Equality Committee, Faith Committee, Senate, and Senior Leadership Team, it was agreed that the University would not adopt at this time, as there is a preference for a more inclusive statement, covering all faith groups.”

This information was obtained after Campaign Against Antisemitism submitted a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 on 8th June 2023. On 28th June 2023, the University responded.

When asked on 6th August 2020, Swansea University Students’ Union failed to confirm whether it has adopted the International Definition of Antisemitism.
