Building Hope: The Impact of the World Zionist Congress on Progressive Leadership in Israel

Elections have consequences. But too few people are aware of the stakes of this year’s elections to the World Zionist Congress, taking place from March 10 through May 4, the results of which will determine the distribution of more than 5 billion dollars over the next 5 years. Through the WZC elections, Diaspora Jewish communities have a choice to make: Will that money be allocated to organizations and programs that promote intolerance and illiberalism? Or will it go towards groups which stand for an Israel that lives up to its highest values? Partners for Progressive Israel and Hashomer Hatzair will present this urgent conversation as leaders of the Hatikvah Slate, the only anti-Occupation slate running in the World Zionist Congress. Learn more about the Hatikvah Slate and vote for an Israel that lives up to its highest values at https://www.hatikvahslate.net/ On Wednesday, March 12, at 1:30pm Eastern Time, we were joined by representatives of several progressive organizations who receive funding from the WZO allocations, and who are the architects of a future of hope and political alternatives in Israel.
