Jewish Community Partnerships

Standing shoulder-to-shoulder with our Jewish brothers and sisters

AJC’s Belfer Institute for Latino and Latin American Affairs (BILLA) maintains longstanding partnerships with the Jewish communities of Latin America, Spain, and Portugal. One of our main goals continues to be protecting the physical security of local Jewish communities from domestic and global terrorism and antisemitism.

These partnerships include joint work in engaging governmental leaders through diplomatic meetings and AJC missions to the region aimed at strengthening BILLA’s goals. A highlight of our work is our Annual Strategic Forum for Latin American Jewish leaders, who are convened to discuss issues of concern for the region and their impact on the Jewish people.
