El Comité Judío Estadounidense (AJC, por sus siglas en inglés) ha nombrado a Michael Teichberg su primer Director de Alianzas Estratégicas, como parte de su equipo en la Oficina Regional de Miami y Broward.
American Jewish Committee (AJC), the leading global Jewish advocacy organization, mourns the passing of Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI. A true friend of the Jewish people, Benedict continued the path of reconciliation and friendship with world Jewry blazed by his predecessor, John Paul II.
I was first introduced to Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, later to become Pope Benedict XVI, in the late 1980s when he was visiting Jerusalem. Teddy Kollek, mayor of Jerusalem, was eager for me to meet with the cardinal, telling me that I would discover a very different person from the image portrayed in the general media. He was so correct.
Pope Benedict XVI was deeply committed to advancing relations with the Jewish People. He was the first Pope ever to invite Jewish leaders both to the funeral of a pontiff and, above all, to the celebration of his own coronation. Very early in his pontificate Benedict received a leadership delegation of my organization, American Jewish Committee.
At AJC Global Forum 2024, over two thousand leaders and hundreds of young leaders from around the world will convene at the global Jewish advocacy event of the year in Washington D.C. Together, we will tackle the most pressing issues facing the Jewish people, America, Israel, and the world.
