A Global Community. A Shared Language. One Stronger Jewish Response.

JReady’s Global CMTs Forum – Founding Delegation

May 10–14 | Israel

In a reality where crises affect Jewish communities across continents—often simultaneously—preparedness, coordination, and shared professional language are no longer optional. They are essential.

JReady invites you to take part in a foundational moment: the launch of JReady’s Global CMTs Forum, bringing together senior Community Management Teams (CMTs) from across the Jewish world for a five-day learning, exchange, and co-creation delegation in Israel.

This is not a conference.
This is a working platform for shaping how Jewish communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies—together.

Why This Delegation Matters

Recent years—and recent events such as the attack in Bondi Beach, Sydney—have made clear that Jewish communities face shared threats, but often operate with different structures, languages, and response models.

The purpose of JReady’s Global CMTs Forum is to close that gap.

The Forum will be grounded in:

  • The Ready360 framework for Jewish community emergency intervention

  • Validated protocols, tools, and best practices developed through real-world implementation

  • The collective on-the-ground experience of CMTs worldwide, combining lessons learned, successes, and challenges from communities in Europe, Latin America, Canada, and beyond

  • A shared understanding of how Jewish communities function across the full emergency cycle—from preparedness to recovery

Together, these elements form a living, practice-based framework, shaped by communities—not imposed on them.

Who Will Participate

  • Professionals, Heads of Community Management Teams (CMTs) of Jewish communities worldwide.

  • Leaders with direct responsibility for community functioning in emergencies

The delegation is intentionally small and senior-level, enabling trust, depth, and long-term collaboration.

What You Will Work On During the Week

Co-Creating a Unified Global CMT Framework

Through facilitated workgroups, participants will:

  • Align roles, responsibilities, and decision-making processes

  • Develop a shared professional language for Jewish community emergency management

  • Define common standards while respecting local adaptation

  • Shape the structure and future workplan of JReady’s Global CMTs Forum

All work will be rooted in Ready360, while integrating the lived experience of participating communities.

Peer Learning From the Field

Participants will engage in structured peer exchange to:

  • Share best practices, dilemmas, and failures from real emergencies

  • Analyze recent incidents, including the Sydney Bondi Beach attack

  • Compare how different community ecosystems translate frameworks into action

This is learning from equals, not lectures.

Israel as a Living Classroom

Beyond the seminar rooms, the delegation will include:

  • Curated tours linking leadership, resilience, and Jewish identity

  • Informal spaces to build trust, relationships, and a shared global mission
