World Jewish Communities

African Jewish Congress

The African Jewish Congress is the co-ordinating body whereby the smaller Jewish communities in Sub-Saharan Africa can retain their links with world Jewry.

The focus of the AJC is:

• To enable the smaller Jewish communities to give their members viable and vibrant Jewish spiritual lives.
• To co-ordinate the fight against anti-Semitism.
• To promote the interests of the State of Israel.
• To give Africa and African Jews a voice in international Jewry through a proper forum. The African Jewish Congress is affiliated to the South African Jewish Board of Deputies and the World Jewish Congress.
