Dear Chaverim,
From Strength to Strength … Together
As a member of ARZA Canada, you contribute to the progressive voice on the world Zionist stage. Thank you for your support in our recent fight for balanced leadership of the World Zionist Organization, ensuring that all perspectives are honoured in the parliament of the Jewish people.
Reform Jews from Israel and around the world worked with their allies to successfully block ultra-Orthodox dominance in the positions of power in the World Zionist Organization. We succeeded in securing several top positions in the agencies of the WZO. And we demonstrated how it is possible to create change through public awareness and engagement, staying true to our values of fairness and civility.
Thank you to our ARZA Canada delegation for working hard to represent these values at the Congress.
As progressive Jews, we commit ourselves to promote democracy and justice in Israel and around the world.
