AJC’s Belfer Institute for Latino and Latin American Affairs (BILLA) maintains longstanding partnerships with the Jewish communities of Latin America, Spain, and Portugal.
A delegation of influential U.S.-based Latino clergy is visiting Israel with AJC Project Interchange and will learn about Israel’s experiences absorbing and integrating immigrants from around the world, the Israeli-Palestinian relationship, religious communities in Israel, Israel’s political landscape, and national security.
José Manuel Restrepo, Project Interchange alumnus and Colombia’s Minister of
Commerce, Industry and Tourism wrote in El Espectador about Israel’s success in innovation and nation-building, and lessons that can be learned by Colombia.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog sat down with AJC CEO Ted Deutch at AJC Global Forum 2023 in Tel Aviv to discuss how and why he has used the office of the president to affect constructive change.
