The establishment of the union of Jewish organisations in Belgium dates back to before the war, but it was not until 26 March 1969 that it was re-founded under the name 'Belgian Section of the World Jewish Congress'. In 1984, the organisation gave up its name for its current name: Coordination Committee of Jewish Organisations in Belgium. The Coordinating Committee of Jewish Organisations in Belgium (CCOJB) is an organisation that is made up of numerous cultural, political, sporting, educational, social and religious organisations of the Jewish Community of Belgium.

The CCOJB aims to represent the Jewish organisations in Belgium, independently of the different political, social or religious tendencies that may exist between them. The principal missions of the CCOJB are: fighting for the defence, study and development of Jewish values in Belgium, fighting against anti-Semitism, racism and xenophobia, stimulating remembrance of the Shoah, defending the moral and material rights of the members of the Jewish community in Belgium and their right holders, and lastly, support for the State of Israel.  
Access requires the authorisation of the president of the CCOJB.

The CCOJB is a member of the European Jewish Congress and the World Jewish Congress. The federation was created by David Susskind and Markus Pardès in 1970, in the context of the campaign undertaken in favour of the Jews in the Soviet Union. Today there are 39 affiliated organisations. Each association is represented on the CCOJB board by one delegate, also charged with electing a new president every two years. The delegates and members meet in several thematic commissions.
