Ibero-American Gathering

ROI’s Iberoamerican Gathering was aimed specifically at young Jewish leaders and community activists of Iberoamerican countries. This year’s Iberoamerican Gathering pooled the talents and flair of social entrepreneurs to create a unique networking and skill-building opportunity. Participants learned useful tools and established vital connections to effectively address current challenges in all fields of Jewish life and culture. 
In addition to informal and strategic networking, participants benefited from sessions and interactive workshops aimed at developing social start-ups and at taking initiatives and projects to the next levels of success. This gathering provided a fresh avenue for brainstorming new expressions of Jewish life. Dynamic and successful Jewish leaders shared their personal knowledge and experience to ensure effective planning and to provide novel tips for innovation.

ROI Iberoamerican Gathering 2011 was held from November 23-27 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Fifty creative individuals and passionate community activists gathered to explore original ways for connecting to Judaism and Jewish culture and history. Among the many young and up-and-coming leaders who attended are social justice activists, artists, environmentalists, media and tech-gurus, educators, Israel advocates and people involved in intercultural dialogue.
