Default Jewish community in Italy welcomes Muslim refugees from Syria

Jewish community in Italy welcomes Muslim refugees from Syria

2020/01/30

A Syrian family arrived in Milan, Italy, on Tuesday. They are the first group of refugees that is sponsored by the Union of Italian Jewish Communities (UCEI) and the Jewish Community of Milan, as part of the humanitarian corridors project.

The humanitarian corridors projects allows for communities to sponsor refugees and thus secure their relocation to Europe. It was started in 2016 in Italy by the Community of Sant'Egidio, the Federation of Evangelical Churches in Italy (FCEI) and the Waldensian Roundtable - three Christian organizations. Now, the number of religions involved in the project is expanding.

For the first time, on Tuesday in Milan, refugees arrived that were sponsored by Jewish organizations -- the Union of Italian Jewish Communities (UCEI) and the Jewish Community of Milan.
