Alliance Israélite Universelle

The
Alliance Israélite Universelle () is a
Paris-based international
Jewish organization founded in 1860 by the French statesman
Adolphe Crémieux to safeguard the
human rights of
Jews around the world. The organization promotes the ideals of Jewish
self-defense and
self-sufficiency through
education and
professional development.
The motto of the organization is the Jewish
rabbinic injunction ''Kol yisrael arevim ze laze'' (כל ישראל ערבים זה לזה), translated into
French as ''Tous les israélites sont solidaires les uns des autres'' ("All Jews bear responsibility for one another").
