A specially convened task force in Davos has drawn up a catalog of measures for dealing with Jewish guests. This is intended to promote understanding between the Davos population and international guests and prevent misunderstandings.
The measures are a reaction to "misunderstandings" between the population groups, the task force called "Communication Process in Davos" wrote in a press release on Thursday.
Last winter, there was a scandal when a mountain restaurant in Davos no longer wanted to rent out snow sports equipment to Jewish guests. Various "annoying incidents" had led to the rental stop, according to a letter in Hebrew posted at the restaurant.
In collaboration with the Swiss Federation of Jewish Communities (SIG), ten measures have now been developed to ensure mutual respect. Among other things, a contact point for Jewish guests will be set up. The information material on rules of conduct will also be revised.
