New Zealand Jewish Council

The New Zealand Jewish Council (NZJC) is a Jewish communal organisation in New Zealand. Aided by regional Jewish councils, it was established in 1981 to respond to antisemitism in New Zealand and misinformation. The Council also monitors and responds to the New Zealand government's foreign policy and attitudes towards the State of Israel and the Middle East. It acts as the representative body of Jewish communities in New Zealand, therefore representing 10,000 Jews across the country. It is an affiliate of the World Jewish Congress.
