Jillian Segal

Jillian Segal is Australia's special envoy to combat antisemitism. She is in the news due to a recent rise in antisemitic incidents, particularly following the Bondi Beach attack, which has been described as the worst terror attack in Australian history. Segal has urged Australian leaders to act on recommendations she presented in July to combat antisemitism. Her call for action comes amid criticism of the government's response to the attack and perceived rise in antisemitism. The Bondi attack has prompted discussions about gun control and the government's commitment to dedicating resources to eradicate antisemitism, further highlighting Segal's role and the urgency of her recommendations.
