SUMMARY:Jewish Life in Europe: Facing the Future
DESCRIPTION:Online registration for this event is now closed. Please contact stlouis@ajc.org if you are interested in attending.\n        \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n        \n            AJC and Jewish Federation of St. Louis invite you to Lunch & Learn with Benedetta Butigglioni\nJewish Life in Europe: Facing the Future\nFeaturing Benedetta Buttiglione\, Director of AJC’s Transatlantic Institute \nTuesday\, April 28\n11:30am – 1:00pm \nIn recent years\, Jewish communities across Europe have faced a sharp rise in antisemitic incidents—from vandalism and harassment to physical attacks. In March alone\, reported cases included synagogue attacks in Liège\, Rotterdam\, and Trondheim\, the firebombing of Jewish ambulances in London\, and an explosive attack on a Jewish school in Amsterdam. \nThis troubling trend has had a broader impact\, with many European Jews reporting heightened insecurity and\, in some cases\, changing their daily behavior—such as avoiding visibly wearing Jewish symbols or attending community events. \nThese developments raise a pressing question: what does the future of Jewish life in Europe look like\, and how are communities\, policymakers\, and civil society responding? \nAJC and the Jewish Federation invite you to a conversation with Ms. Buttiglione\, who will share an on-the-ground perspective on these challenges and discuss AJC’s work with European leaders and governments to strengthen protections for Jewish life. Join us for the opportunity to ask questions and gain deeper insight into why this issue matters—not only for Jewish communities\, but for the future of Europe as a whole. \nNo solicitation of funds. \nDietary laws observed. \n        \n    \n\n\n\n\n    \n        \n            Benedetta Buttiglione is the Director of the AJC Transatlantic Institute\, leading initiatives to strengthen Israel’s security\, combat antisemitism in Europe\, and reinforce transatlantic cooperation. \nBased in Brussels since 2006\, Benedetta has held leadership roles at AJC and the European Parliament\, where she has specialized in EU-Israel relations\, playing a key role in advancing cooperation on political\, security\, and economic issues between the EU and Israel.
