The Jewish Community
of Malmö
The Jewish Community in Malmö welcomes Jews of
all ages, lifestyles and backgrounds. The community
is committed to promoting Jewish culture, providing
religious services, offering kosher food and educa-
tion, and advocating for Jewish interests in society.
Additionally, the community takes a firm stance
against antisemitism. Unfortunately, due to rising
antisemitism and the vulnerable situation of Jews
in Malmö, the congregation has declined sharply.
At the same time, costs have increased – including
for security. Therefore, it is essential to support and
protect the Jewish minority that has positively con-
tributed to the development and culture of Malmö
since the mid-nineteenth century. jfm.se

The Swedish Committee
Against Antisemitism
The Swedish Committee Against Antisemitism is
a politically and religiously independent organ-
ization dedicated to combating antisemitism
and racism through education, information, and
opinion formation. The committee continuously
monitors the public discourse and mass media to
highlight and respond to antisemitic and other
racist statements. Its social media channels and
newsletter are key sources of information and
debate concerning antisemitism. The committee
also works through education and advocacy,
providing information, expert lecturers and
teaching resources for use by teachers, students,
the media, political organisations and other
stakeholders. skma.se
