As Progressive Zionists, we know that supporting a pluralist and egalitarian Israel is more important than ever post-October 7, and also because of the continued attempts to undermine Israeli democracy in the name of “judicial reforms”.
ARZA needs your membership to make sure we can effectively represent the Progressive values of democracy, social justice, human rights, equality for all, and religious pluralism at the World Zionist Congress in the face of growing opposition.
ARZA Australia will represent Australian Progressive Judaism and Progressive values at the World Zionist Congress to be held in 2025. Our delegates will team with Progressive delegates from around the world. The total number of Australian members of ARZA determines the number of votes we have at the Congress, where policies are debated and passed which effect the over $1 billion allocated to programs in Israel and in the Diaspora.
Other streams are competing for promoting their values, many of which have a negative impact on what we believe in! Currently, religious-based parties supporting the growth of settlements in the West Bank and even in Gaza are recruiting members to their cause in the US and other Diaspora countries. They are building their voting blocks.
Many of you think you are members of ARZA but in fact are not, because your membership was not renewed either personally or through your synagogue!
