General Overview

Europe’s only Jewish news agency

Launched in August 2005, the European Jewish Press is the only online Jewish news agency in Europe.

The privately funded Brussels-based organisation is an independent media body. It aims to provide both Jewish and non-Jewish audiences around the world with balanced, up-to-date and reliable news reports about European Jewry and other issues of concern to the Jewish community.

As the sole pan-European provider of Jewish news, EJP fills an important gap by taking on the role of a centralised European Jewish media agency. Unlike other Jewish publications in Europe, which maintain a strong focus on the national and local community level, EJP provides a European perspective to news stories and gives readers a chance to learn about Jewish issues across Europe.

EJP strives to disseminate information, news and views about European Jewish issues to a broad global audience, targeting not only Europe’s Jewish communities, but also non-Jewish readers around the world.

Based at the heart of Europe and in a major centre of international media, EJP draws on an extensive network of correspondents throughout Europe from Paris to Kiev and from Stockholm to Rome to supply the latest news.

Objectives, Vision, Values

	Our values Independent, objective and balanced coverage

EJP aims to be the main professional channel of communications providing news on European Jewish life and news impacting Jews.

The agency is today recognised by the major media organisations, EU institutions and the general public as an important source of reliable and accurate information and the undisputed reference on European Jewish issues.
