The International Jewish Committee on Interreligious Consultations (IJCIC, www.ijcic.net) represents Jews around the world through dialogues with the Vatican, the Ecumenical Patriarchate, the World Council of Churches, the World Evangelical Alliance, and has also begun to engage with international Muslim organizations. This consortium of 11 Jewish organizations was founded in 1970, in response to the dramatic, positive transformation of Christian attitudes toward Jews and Judaism, notably the Roman Catholic Church’s Nostra Aetate. Join us as its Chair discusses IJCIC's mission and current and planned future interactions with officials of these various religious traditions, with special attention to Jewish-Catholic relations. He will consider topics that are difficult, as well as those on which there is much agreement.
Rabbi Dr. David Fox Sandmel is Chair of the International Jewish Committee on Interreligious Consultations and Senior Advisor on Interreligious Affairs for the Anti-Defamation League.
