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.[1] 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.[1] It acts as the representative body of Jewish communities in New Zealand, therefore representing 10,000 Jews across the country.[2] It is an affiliate of the World Jewish Congress.[3]
