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.
Relations between Latin America and Israel are about to get an important boost. For the first time since the founding of the Jewish state in May 1948, its sitting prime minister will visit the region.
