Your Mayor in Israel

Your Mayor in Israel The American Council for World Jewry brings together dozens of prominent mayors from every corner of the globe in Israel, every year.

The Israel International Mayors Conference enables participants from different countries to have direct contact with mayors from Israel and from all over the world, affording an opportunity to network and share professional know-how with leading experts in urban development. The participating mayors will have an opportunity to focus on vital issues that are common to all cities and to exchange spe

The event will include discussion sessions, professional tours and visits to historic locations in Israel, including those sacred to Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Our small country is not only rich in ancient sites, but is a hub for innovation and creativity.
