The American Jewish Committee (AJC) is one of the leading global Jewish organization and works to impact policy and opinion on some of the most important issues facing the Jewish people. AJC fights antisemitism and all forms of hate, strengthens Israel’s place in the world, and defends democratic values. AJC has long been a prime partner and sponsor of EUJS. The special relationship between EUJS and AJC was cemented in a formal partnership agreement signed in Washington D.C. in March 2005, under the leadership of AJC CEO, David Harris and awarded Honorary Member of EUJS in 2022. The AJC helps to bridge the trans-Atlantic divide by sponsoring a fellowship program that, every summer, gives an American college student the unique opportunity to spend six weeks working at the EUJS office in Brussels. Furthermore, for several years AJC has sponsored an EUJS delegation, compromised of leading student activists from across Europe, at its annual Global Forum in Washington D.C., New York or Jerusalem.
