President Herzog launches a Jewish Davos initiative to bridge the gap between Israel and Diaspora

President Isaac Herzog announced the launch of a new initiative to bridge the gap between Israel and Diaspora Jewry, at the opening ceremony of the annual Jewish Federation of North America’s General Assembly on Sunday.

The venture, “Kol Ha’am – Voice of the People: The President’s Initiative for Worldwide Jewish Dialogue,” is between the president, the Jewish Agency and the World Zionist Organization.

“Its vision is to launch a first-of-its-kind global council for Jewish dialogue; a Jewish ‘Davos,’” the president told the 3,000 Jewish audience members who gathered from around the world in Tel Aviv last night.

“Nonpartisan and apolitical, Voice of the People will be a collaborative forum. One that can hold and reflect the full and diverse range of Jewish voices. It will be a place where we can engage in serious, sensitive and strategic discussions on the most complex and pressing issues facing our people. A place where we formulate concrete proposals and action items to address them. But, most importantly, a place to cultivate the next generation of Jewish leaders.”
