B’nai B’rith is an international NGO, accredited to the UN, represented at UNESCO and at the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, bringing together Jews of any origin to serve the communities in which they live.
This year, in partnership with AEPJ under the umbrella of the NOA project (Networks Overcoming Antisemitism) and with its participation in the Task Force Group, B’nai B’rith Europe has inspired its lodges to become coordinators of the European Days of Jewish Culture with the central theme Dialogue.
Here are the words of Serge Dahan, President of B’nai B’rith Europe:
The European Days of Jewish Culture are celebrated every year during autumn in Europe with the support of B’nai B’rith lodges. The fundamental objective of this European collaboration is to highlight the diversity and richness of Judaism, with the intention of promoting dialogue, mutual recognition and exchange through conferences, concerts, performances, guided tours and other activities.
Past Sunday, September 5th, in the heart of the city of Luxembourg, the kick-off of this year’s European Days of Jewish Culture was held, with the central theme of Dialogue.
After an introduction by our AEPJ President, François Moyse, as well as the addresses of the Ministers, the Mayor of the City of Luxembourg, Lydie Polfer, and the Director of the European Institute of Cultural Routes, Stefano Dominioni, the unveiling of the plaque took place in the presence of H. E. the Israeli Ambassador to Belgium and Luxembourg, Emmanuel Nashon, as well as the Chief Rabbi of Luxembourg.
The AEPJ and the Administration of Public Buildings installed a plaque that recalls the exact location of the first synagogue of Luxembourg, which occupied the premises of the former refuge of the sisters of Differdange from 1823 to 1894.
