ADL’s
[link removed]
Global 100 survey found that nearly half of the world’s adult population – an estimated 2.2 billion people – harbor deeply entrenched antisemitic attitudes, more than double compared to ADL’s first worldwide survey a decade ago and the highest level on record since ADL started tracking these trends globally.
Other major findings include:
-
20 percent of respondents worldwide have not heard about the Holocaust.
-
Less than half (48%) of respondents recognize the Holocaust’s historical accuracy, which falls to 39 percent among 18- to 34-year-olds, highlighting a worrying demographic trend.
-
Respondents younger than 35 also have elevated levels of antisemitic sentiments (50 percent), 13 percentage points higher than respondents over 50.
-
Despite the alarming findings about antisemitic attitudes and Holocaust awareness, 57% of respondents globally recognize that hate towards Jews is a serious problem in the world.The survey was widely covered by international media, including approximately 80 individually pitched articles, op-eds, and TV broadcasts, spanning nearly 20 countries. Jonathan Greenblatt, Marina Rosenberg and the IA team conducted over 50 interviews, resulting in features in prestigious news outlets such as the
