Dear Friends,

For those who missed this information on our website and newsletter, we are happy to inform you that on April 25, 2017, the Austrian Government, at the initiative of its minister of foreign affairs Mr Sebastian Kurz, adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) working definition of anti-Semitism.

The Austrian Government noted this working definition was the first to be approved by an intergovernmental organization and should aid in the identification of and combating anti-Semitism.

Austria follows the United Kingdom in adopting the definition.
