Organisation
CEJI-A Jewish Contribution to an Inclusive Europe
cEuropean Jewish organisation
Founded in 1991, CEJI is a Brussels-based non-profit organisation which aims to create an inclusive and democratic Europe where people can enjoy their unique potential with all their diversity. CEJI's mission to contribute to an inclusive Europe derives from centuries of Jewish experience with integration and the threats of prejudice and hatred. It is the organisation's belief that we must confront all forms of discrimination including racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, xenophobia, anti-gypsyism, homolesbobitransphobia, ableism and discrimination based upon gender, age and religion. CEJI focuses on the development and delivery of participatory training programmes, an approach which also arises from the Jewish tradition. Hallmark CEJI initiatives include Networks Overcoming Antisemitism (NOA), Facing Facts and the award-winning Belieforama, all of which have received co-financing from the European Commission.
