JANE BRADEN-GOLAY, from Schaffhausen, Switzerland, and President of the European Union of Jewish Students, is speaking at the Merrick Jewish Centre the night before she is scheduled to address - upon the invitation of Ambassador Samantha Power, U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations - ambassadors and civil rights leaders at Rep. Power's residence, after the first United Nations General Assembly meeting on rise of anti-Semitic violence worldwide. When a congregation member asked about recent terror attacks in France (against French satirical weekly newspaper Charlie Hebdo in Paris), Braden-Golay said, "It's all still so very fresh.... Europe is in a shock state right now" but that she hoped in weeks to come "for all of us to take responsibility for creating a Europe that doesn't give room to this sort of terror again." Braden-Golay, a senior at the University of Zurich, was awarded the World Union of Jewish Students' Hersch Lauterpacht Award for Outstanding Contribution to Jewish Student Life, in 2014.
