The Brazilian Israelite Confederation (Confederação Israelita do Brasil or CONIB)[1] is the central organization of the Brazilian Jewish community. The organization was established in 1948, it gathers 14 state federations with some 200 institutions, serving as the community's political representative.[2] The political activities undertaken by CONIB are one of the few national coordination efforts by the organized Jewish community in Brazil.[3]
