Report Antisemitism: New Name, Same Mission
Over 40 years of combating antisemitism in the Netherlands, now with a clearer focus.
Starting April 1, 2025, the CIDI Meldpunt Antisemitisme will be renamed ReportAntisemitism. This change underscores our commitment to fighting antisemitism and eliminates any confusion with other branches of our organization.
A legacy of fighting antisemitism
History and Purpose
Since 1981, the reporting center has been part of CIDI, serving as the primary platform for addressing antisemitism in the Netherlands. It was established to provide practical and consistent support to the Jewish community.
Evolving Focus
While our responsibilities also include a focus on Israel, we have kept these areas separate. However, the changing landscape and recent events have made it necessary to clarify our focus and strengthen our mission.
Committed to Honest and Genuine Reporting
At ReportAntisemitism, we handle every report with integrity and sincerity, ensuring that both the Jewish communityand the broader society receive the support they need to address antisemitic incidents.
Research & Advocacy
Highlights research efforts and public awareness campaigns.

Why ‘Report Antisemitism’?
In recent years, confusion has arisen between our work on Israel and our efforts to combat antisemitism. Misunderstandings, particularly following the events of October 7, 2023, have led to unjustified criticism.
By adopting the name ReportAntisemitism, we clearly define our role and establish a singular, unwavering focus: fighting antisemitism.
