(OSCE/Murat Gungor) Challenging anti-Semitism and promoting Holocaust remembrance The success of the 10th Anniversary of the OSCE’s Berlin Conference on Anti-Semitism in November 2014 was followed by terrible attacks targeting Jewish communities in Paris and Copenhagen in early 2015. In the wake of the attacks, ODIHR examined ways to improve the security of Jewish communities. On 20 April, ODIHR held a workshop to explore the impacts of anti-Semitic attacks on Jewish communities, identifying the defining features of anti-Semitic hate crime and concrete ways for governments and communities to work closer together. Building on these needs and recommendations, ODIHR began planning the implementation of an intensive three-year project that will identify and respond to the security needs of Jewish communities, promote tolerance through education and strengthen civil society through coalition-building activities. In addition to actively countering contemporary anti-Semitism, ODIHR actively promoted Holocaust remembrance throughout the year. Following long-term efforts by ODIHR and the OSCE Mission to Moldova, the Moldovan parliament adopted 27 January as a Holocaust Memorial Day, becoming the 28th OSCE country to do so. This recognition came in a year that marked the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau.
