To comprehend this “we must dialogue with each other in the bone chair and fight against clichés and stereotypes,” he said adding that “mutual scientific knowledge, passion to explore the spiritual and theological resources of the other and academic knowledge are the only way out to chase away the fear of the other. “

The Secretary General of the Council of Israelite Communities of Morocco has expressed the wish to institutionalize this meeting and proposes a meeting « every two years under a single space that would build the world gathering of Jews from Morocco”.
