WCJCC organizes Study Visits focusing on a
specific issue that pertains to the world of JCCs. In 2003, WCJCC visited
Argentina, under the auspices of CLAM and FACCMA, during the economic crisis
there, focusing on the realities and needs of JCCs.
In June 2005, WCJCC visited Germany, under the auspices of ZWST, in an attempt
to strengthen ties and promote collaboration with the worldwide movement. In
2006 study visits to the Baltic States, France and the Ukraine, focusing on
Jewish life in today's Europe, are taking place. |

"When Jews arrived from the FSU we quickly mobilized all our resources to
absorb them and help them. We believe there is a lot we can teach, but we can
also learn from others."
