The strategic roadmap follows a report documenting a 93% increase in expressions of antisemitism last year over 2023.
Italy’s government last week unveiled a new strategy for fighting antisemitism following a report that documented a near doubling of antisemitic incidents in 2024 over the previous year.
The new five-year strategy focuses on surveillance, with an emphasis on online antisemitism; education; and increasing the visibility of protection for Jews and communication, according to a report on the Moked Jewish news site on Thursday.
Gen. Pasquale Angelosanto, Italy’s national coordinator for the fight against antisemitism, unveiled the program last month following the publication of a report that showed documented expressions of antisemitic hatred rose from 455 in 2023 to 877 last year.
