2003 OSCE Conference
(June 20, 2003)
The first high-level OSCE conference devoted specially
to the issue of anti-Semitism ended in Vienna with calls by participants for the Organization and its 55 participating
States to reaffirm their commitments made in Copenhagen in 1990 to condemn
racial and ethnic hatred, including anti-Semitism,
and to undertake effective follow-up action to demonstrate these commitments
in practice.
More than 400 participants from governments and non-governmental
organizations attended the OSCE Conference on anti-Semitism, which looked
into best practices to prevent anti-Semitism through awareness-raising,
education, the rule of law and anti-discrimination legislation, law
enforcement, cultural preservation, and methodologies for combating
anti-Semitism.
