LEADERSHIP
The new generation of leaders is here.

Tomás Mojo
It motivates me to be part of a space for collective construction, for the defense of Human Rights and a place to get to know people, ideas and unique projects, with great social impact and scope.
Hernán Frenkel
I am motivated by the possibility of strengthening the voice of the community in those spaces where it is necessary to make it heard, as well as the desire to build coexistence in diversity.
Tamara Grajewer
It motivates me to be part of programs that promote the feeling of community, culture, values and Jewish tradition.
Florencia Kaplun
Knowing that there is constant discrimination based on ignorance and hate motivates me to activate and contribute my grain of sand.
Nicolás Luna
I am motivated by the traditions, values and knowledge that we share in our community. I am committed to participate wherever it is in order to support it, promote its growth and preserve its roots.
Brenda Ficher
Collective construction is one of the founding bases of Jewish identity and I believe that we have a responsibility to follow that mandate. We are better together, we are better with each other.
