According to its own website:

The Jewish Agency is a global partnership committed to the Jewish future that stands on a history-making track record... Together, our partnership has brought 3 million people to Israel; we have built a nation.


It has three 'Mission Areas'

  • Aliyah: Bringing a substantial number of Jews to live in Israel and ensuring their successful integration.
  • Jewish-Zionist Education: Connecting the next generation with Israel and Jewish peoplehood as a core part of Jewish identity.
  • Partnerships with Israel: Involving world Jewry with Israelis in shaping the future character of Israeli society.[1]

It works in concert with United Jewish Communities (UJC) in North America, and Keren Hayesod - United Israel Appeal around the world.[2] The Agency Board of governors is made up of representatives of these three organisations plus a hefty number from the World Zionist Organization.[3]
