Strengthening Ties and Relations Among Jewish Communities

The 9th General Assemble of Latin American Jewish Communities will be held in Guatemala from October 29 through November 2. This year’s focus will be on smaller Latin America Jewish communities. Last year's General Assembly, held in Brazil, attracted more than 800 attendees from Latin America, The United States, Israel and the world; even more are expected this year.

This year's discussion topics will include:

"Is it the school’s responsibility to be in charge of Jewish continuity?"

"Changes in the conceptualization of poverty in the Jewish Communities in Latin America"

"The Middle East in Latin America- the Middle East conflict: scope and repercussions on the Jewish Communities in Latin America and the Caribbean"

"Migratory movements and demographic changes in the Jewish Communities in Latin America"

"Jewish youth today and the challenge of the community. How is a Jewish future built for the future generations?"

"Does living with diversity affect the Jewish Community?"

"Recreating Communities: processes of change and transformation starting from leadership"
