The 39th World Zionist Congress convened in Jerusalem from October 28–29, 2025.
World Zionist Congresses choose who will occupy leadership positions, and determine policy for the World Zionist Organization (WZO) and other national institutions, including the Jewish National Fund (JNF), the Jewish Agency for Israel (JAFI) and Keren Hayesod.
The national institutions governed by the congress (WZO, JNF, JAFI, and others) collectively spend approximately US$1 billion annually on their activities.
The 39th Congress took place shortly after the beginning of the ceasefire in the 2023—2025 Gaza war.
