“The situation in Europe regarding anti-Semitism, racism and the rise in religious radicalism cannot continue without endangering the mere existence of European Jewish communities and the safety of Europe in general”, Dr. Moshe Kantor, President of the EJC, said. “Commemoration alone is not enough. To prevent history repeating itself, we need more than speeches about the dark chapters of history. We need to deal with the present challenges we face and safeguard our future.”

The Czech Republic was chosen by the EJC, the main organiser of the Forum, because of its connection to the Holocaust, but also in acknowledgement of the country having one of the lowest levels of anti-Semitism in Europe today.

Independent surveys show that 70 years after liberating the concentration and death camps, anti-Semitism is once again on the rise across the continent. A 2013 survey of European Jewish communities, undertaken by the EU's Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA), demonstrated that 66% of respondents perceived anti-Semitism as a problem in their every-day lives. Almost a third of the respondents were seriously considering emigration from Europe because of security concerns.

A global poll, carried out by the Anti-Defamation League during 2013 – 2014 and undertaken in 100 countries, demonstrated that over one billion people around the world harbour anti-Semitic attitudes. This number corresponds to 26% of the total number of people surveyed. In Europe, 29% of the population were identified as anti-Semitic, with wide differences between individual countries – Sweden received the lowest score at 4%, with the highest result in Hungary at 41%. The Czech Republic, with 13%, is at the low end of the scale.
