Funding and Politics in the World Zionist Congress

This chapter explores the relationship between the World Zionist Congress and the strategic allocation of $2.5 billion in annual funds, influenced by the political composition of its 525 delegates. It highlights the challenges faced by non-Orthodox Judaism in Israel and the need for strong representation to secure funding for pluralistic initiatives amidst rising right-wing influences. The discussion also addresses the impact of recent elections on Jewish identity and the role of the World Zionist Organization in responding to current crises and combating anti-Semitism.
