AJC Global Forum 2026 Closing Plenary | Shaping a New Future

AJC Global Forum 2026 concluded with a forward-looking plenary focused on how American Jewish Committee is helping shape a stronger future for Israel, the Jewish people, and democratic societies around the world. The plenary honored outstanding student leaders with the AJC Sharon Greene Award for Campus Advocacy and recognized distinguished Jewish American veterans in partnership with the Jewish War Veterans of the United States of America. It also featured a bipartisan conversation with Senators John Fetterman (D-PA) and Dave McCormick (R-PA), who joined AJC CEO Ted Deutch to discuss leadership, allyship, and the challenges facing America, Israel, and the Jewish people. The program also explored the future of artificial intelligence—how AI can both amplify antisemitism and serve as a powerful tool to counter it—while exploring what the Jewish community needs to prepare for in an increasingly AI-driven world.. We concluded with AJC CEO Ted Deutch’s annual address, challenging attendees to carry the momentum of Global Forum forward with purpose and resolve.
