Jewish World Watch works to mobilize synagogues, their schools, their members and the community to combat genocide and other egregious violations of human rights around the world.

JWW is a leading organization in the fight against genocide and mass atrocities. Since its founding in 2004 based on Jewish experience and values, JWW has grown from a collection of Southern California synagogues into a global coalition that includes schools, churches, individuals, communities and partner organizations that share a vision of a world without genocide.

Currently focused on the ongoing crises in Sudan and eastern Congo, JWW partners with on-the-ground organizations to develop high-impact projects that improve the lives of survivors and help build the foundation for a safer world, while inspiring  our communities to support tangible projects and advocate for political change. Since its inception, JWW has raised more than 12.5 million dollars in pursuit of our mission,  impacting our community and hundreds of thousands of people in Sudan and Congo.

It is the mission of Jewish World Watch to:

• Educate target constituencies by developing appropriate materials and programs;
• Advocate for policies to stop or prevent genocide and other atrocities through community organization and mobilization; and
• Develop resources and allocate funds towards relief and development projects aimed at empowering and alleviating the suffering of survivors.
