“When a society accepts that one group can be dehumanized, it begins to erode respect for the dignity of every human being,” Caplivschi said. “That is why combating antisemitism also means defending democracy, human rights, and freedom.”
CAM Executive Director of Latin American Affairs Shay Salamon said, “For those of us who know Nurit and have had the privilege of working alongside her, this recognition feels especially well deserved. Her dedication, generosity, and constant commitment to building bridges and standing up for what is right are truly inspiring.”
CAM’s outreach in Latin America began more than five years ago, and since then it has worked diligently to build meaningful partnerships and friendships with influential leaders, legislators, diplomats, community organizations, and civil society activists from a diverse assortment of religious, political and cultural backgrounds in the region to combat antisemitism together.
During this time, CAM en Español has emerged as a key player in the battle against Jew-hatred in Latin America, with a growing coalition involved in impactful activities in countries including Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Colombia, Panama, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Mexico, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Honduras, among others.
CAM en Español has organized regional summits in Brazil in 2025, Costa Rica in 2024, Uruguay in 2023, Panama in 2022, and Guatemala in 2021, with the Dominican Republic next in line later this year.
