MAKE AN IMPACT IN THE FIGHT AGAINST ANTISEMITISM
The fight against antisemitism begins at the local level — and mayors are on the front lines. This December, more than 300 municipal leaders from across North America will gather in New Orleans for the 2025 Mayors Summit Against Antisemitism, hosted by the Combat Antisemitism Movement(CAM) and City of New Orleans.
As antisemitism and hate-fueled extremism rise at an alarming pace, the role of municipal leaders has never been more urgent. This summit is a call to action — a dynamic, high-impact, bipartisan convening where mayors and city officials will come together to share strategies, forge partnerships, and chart a path forward for cities to confront antisemitism with clarity and purpose.
Set against the iconic backdrop of New Orleans — a city that recently responded to a terror attack with unity and strength — the 2025 summit builds on the momentum of past summits in Fort Lauderdale and Beverly Hills. Through thoughtful conversations, practical tools, and expert guidance, partcipants will explore city-focused strategies to drive real change at home and translate their values for hate-free communities into tangible city-led action.
Attendees will also become part of CAM’s year-round municipal network, gaining access to resources like the Municipal Antisemitism Action Index to measure impact, adopt best practices, and lead safer, stronger communities.
We hope you'll join us in New Orleans this December for a summit rooted in action, resilience, and hope — because combating antisemitism starts with local leadership.
