From the website:

"The main aims of the European Association for Jewish Studies (the sole umbrella organization representing this field of university studies in the continent) are the encouragement and support of the teaching of Jewish studies at university level in Europe, and to further an understanding of the importance of Jewish culture and civilization and of the impact it has had on European cultures over many centuries. The EAJS was founded as a voluntary academic association in 1981, and the Association has since organized a number of international conferences in Jewish studies."

The EAJS also publishes the European Journal of Jewish Studies (EJJS).
