Journal of Latin American Hermeneutics
"Hermeneutics and biblical interpretation have developed widely throughout Latin America in the last decades and in the beginning of this new Century. Most of the current results of this work have been published in Spanish and Portuguese. Our purpose is to include translations of previous works and new articles so as to contribute to the dialogue among scholars and other people interested in the subject in other parts of the world where English has become the lingua franca."

Union of Jewish Congregations in Latin America and the Caribbean
"The Union of Jewish Congregations of Latin America and the Caribbean (UJCL) -- was born in February 1998 in Costa Rica. The Union arose out of a very successful First Conference, attended by representatives of Progressive Jewish communities in the region. The UJCL strives to preserve the continuity of Judaism in the region and to give a voice to all the small liberal communities in Latin America and the Caribbean. These would otherwise remain ignored and isolated, left to face by themselves the multiple challenges to survival inherent in micro-communities."
