Alliance Israélite Universelle

The Alliance Israelite Universelle was founded in Paris in 1860. Dedicated to the defence of the Jews and the promotion of human rights, it has, over the years, changed into a strong educational organisation that has revolutionized the Jewish world and the French speaking countries.

As an international Jewish institution dedicated to education, the Alliance Israélite Universelle occupies a front place focused on academic and professional success. It focuses also on the transmission of an identity based on the texts of tradition, culture, history and geography of the Jewish people, and the State of Israel.
