States should mainstream the fight against antisemitism, both domestically and internationally, taking all necessary measures to combat all of its public manifestations, regardless of their origin, and ensuring that the fight against antisemitism is carried out at all administrative levels (national, regional, local), with the participation of a wide range of actors from different sectors of society (in particular political, legal, economic, social, religious, educational and cultural) in these efforts, such as national coordinators or coordination mechanisms for combating racism and antisemitism, public bodies and institutions, equality bodies, and other relevant stakeholders.
States should promptly, publicly, unequivocally and resolutely condemn, anywhere, at any time, antisemitic acts and statements and all forms of hatred as well as any denial or distortion of the Holocaust and encourage political leaders, parliamentarians, religious leaders and other public figures to do so.
States should appoint a Special Envoy or national coordinator of domestic efforts to monitor and combat antisemitism, with the mandate to supervise and coordinate efforts to combat antisemitism, and ensure their independent and free operation, including coordinating and regularly engaging with Jewish communities and with other national and international actors focused on combating antisemitism, as well as develop holistic national action plans and/or strategies and allocate sufficient funding for their implementation, or alternatively integrated into an overall action plan against racism.

States should promote and facilitate open and transparent intercultural, interfaith and interreligious dialogue and partnerships, fostering a ‘whole of society approach.’
State should enact legislation aimed at combating antisemitism and other forms of hate speech, as well as limiting Holocaust denial or distortion, including online, in concrete and easy to understand way and in full conformity with international human rights law, and ensure it is effectively implemented and that it enables law enforcement agencies and prosecution services to combat antisemitism effectively.
States should promote, including financially, education, research and knowledge of Jewish life, antisemitism and the Holocaust, train teachers, develop accurate and high-quality educational methodologies and material and awareness-raising programs, and promote tolerance and understanding of international human rights principles.
States should collect reliable disaggregated data and statistics on racist, xenophobic and antisemitic crimes, regular publish them, and strengthen the effectiveness of local and national mechanisms for monitoring and recording hate crimes.
States should, in line with international standards on freedom of expression, regulate internet companies in order to establish effective systems to monitor and stop antisemitic hate speech and Holocaust denial or distortion online, strengthen the capacity of national law enforcement and judicial authorities and facilitate reporting of such content and prosecute antisemitic hate speech and hate crimes.
States should officially commemorate the Holocaust publicly, mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day and encourage initiatives to commemorate the victims of such racist and antisemitic acts.
