Yaakon Hagoell on stage at the event

The conference was held at Bar-Ilan University between 15-17 January, 2017. The goal of the conference was to expose the tremendous scope of anti-Semitism around the world and to sound a call to join forces and pool resources with government entities and decisionmakers around the world, while examining solutions and operative methods for working with governments and Jews in the Diaspora.

Yaakov Hagoell presented data from a survey taken by the WZO’s new Cyber Center. According to the survey 85% of those asked have experienced or witnessed anti-Semitic events, and 73% of those who experienced or witnessed violent antiSemitism did not report it to the police.
