The referendum is the second phase in the project "Our Common Destiny", a groundbreaking initiative, designed to emphasize and strengthen the ties between Israelis and world Jewry.
The referendum questions were translated into seven languages: Hebrew, English, Russian, Spanish, French, German and Portuguese, and it was distributed among Jewish communities on all six continents of the world, including countries such as the United States, Britain, Germany, Hong Kong, Russia, France, Argentina and Australia.
Now, the referendum is reaching its final stages and the results will be collected and revealed.
On the upcoming Hanukkah holiday, starting on December 10, the contents of the "Our Common Destiny" scroll, with the signatures of Jews from all over the world, will be screened on the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem, in a spectacular performance.
On December 17, a special ceremony will be held in the presence of President Reuven Rivlin, in which the President will adopt the scroll.
As part of the ceremony, well-known Israeli and Jewish artists from Israel and around the world will collaborate in a one-time musical performance.
During September 2019, more than 30 scholars, thinkers and Jewish activists from around the world gathered in Jerusalem to discuss the draft scroll.
The document is intended to serve as a platform, which will unite the Jewish community around a common vision for the Jewish people.
After its launch at the President's House last year, the scroll was presented at international conferences and gatherings in the Jewish world and was discussed by thousands of members of Jewish communities around the world, in preparation for its final formation and return to Jerusalem.
Now, the largest Jewish referendum in the world is approaching the results stage and this is your opportunity to participate and influence the wording.
The referendum will allow the Jews of the world to take part in formulating the most significant Jewish core values for them.
Answer the largest Jewish referendum in history:
Sandy Cardin, CEO of the "Our Common Purpose" project:
"Through the survey, we have enabled tens of thousands of Jews from around the world to influence and determine the common values of the entire Jewish people.
We hope that the results of the global referendum on the 'Our Common Destiny' scroll will unite and strengthen the ties between and within the Jewish people, and especially between Israel and the Diaspora.
We believe that the scroll has the potential to become a founding document that will help outline how future generations of the Jewish people, in Israel and around the world, can work together to create a bright future for our people and the world at large.
We invite everyone to come in and make an impact. "
