AJCF

What AJCF does

Amitié Judéo-Chrétienne de France (AJCF) is a French non-profit association (loi 1901) founded in 1948, dedicated to fostering dialogue between Jewish and Christian communities in France. Its primary product is the SENS journal (La revue de l'AJCF), a scholarly publication on Jewish-Christian relations issued multiple times per year since 1948, with content covering theological, historical, and contemporary interfaith themes. AJCF also operates an online boutique (boutique.ajcf.fr) that bundles membership subscriptions, journal purchases (priced 6€-13€ per issue), and donation collection.

The organization runs on a community-led go-to-market model: annual General Assemblies (held in Paris for 2025 and 2026), study days, conferences, and an annual Prix AJCF awarded to individuals contributing to interfaith dialogue. Marketing is conducted through the ajcf.fr website, the La Lettre de l'AJCF newsletter, the SENS journal, and participation in religious and cultural events. Revenue is generated from three streams: recurring membership fees for individuals and organizations, one-time SENS journal sales, and recurring donations.

Leadership as of 2025 comprises Jean-Dominique Durand as President and Joël Thierry as Secretary General, with the organization operating a lean 6-employee structure. AJCF holds membership in the International Council of Christians and Jews (ICCJ) and has participated in international colloquia, but its operating geography is concentrated in France. The underlying technology is a standard CMS-driven web platform with no proprietary features, mobile applications, APIs, or disclosed AI capabilities.

Broad incumbents

• International Council of Christians and Jews (ICCJ): Global umbrella organization for Jewish-Christian dialogue of which AJCF is a member. Operates a broader international scope with conferences, consultations, and research programs that encompass AJCF's work.
• World Council of Churches: Global ecumenical body addressing interfaith and Jewish-Christian relations at scale. Comparable in advocacy and dialogue mandate but operates broader Christian ecumenism rather than AJCF's bilateral Jewish-Christian focus.
• Anti-Defamation League (ADL): Major international NGO combating antisemitism and promoting Jewish-relations education. Comparable in addressing antisemitism and interfaith dialogue but at a vastly larger scale with paid staff and global operations.
• B'nai B'rith International: Jewish humanitarian and human rights organization with global reach and Jewish-Christian relations programming. Comparable in promoting Jewish-community interests and interfaith engagement, but with much broader advocacy scope.

Direct peers

• Service International de Documentation Judéo-Chrétienne (SIDIC): International Catholic documentation and research service focused on Jewish-Christian relations, with comparable scholarly publication output and theological research focus. Frequently cited alongside AJCF in SENS journal references.
• Fraternité d'Abraham: French interfaith organization bringing together Jewish, Christian, and Muslim communities. Comparable in mission scope, French geographic focus, and member-based community engagement model.
• Amitié Judéo-Chrétienne de Belgique: Belgian counterpart organization with the same Jewish-Christian dialogue mandate, member-based structure, and publication focus. Directly comparable in mission, membership model, and program offering.

Regional players

• Interfaith America: US-based interfaith education and dialogue organization. Comparable in promoting interfaith cooperation and providing educational resources, with comparable program models but operates in the United States.
• Council of Christians and Jews (CCJ): UK-based interfaith organization promoting Jewish-Christian dialogue and education. Mirrors AJCF's mandate and member-based structure but operates in the United Kingdom rather than France.

Emerging players

• Tanenbaum Center for Interreligious Understanding: Secular non-profit that promotes interreligious understanding with an emphasis on education and workplace inclusion. Comparable in educational programming and interfaith dialogue focus, though operating at smaller scale.
