What We Do

We provide meaningful Jewish experiences to students to develop and strengthen their Jewish identity and leadership. 

The Australasian Union of Jewish Students (AUJS) has represented Jewish students on campus across Australia and New Zealand since 1948. AUJS operates at national, regional and campus levels. Our student leaders, together with our administrative and support staff, are responsible for bringing Jewish life to you on and off-campus. Our key areas of operation are: 

Jewish & Community Engagement

34% increase in Jewish Identity after engaging with AUJS.

73% of AUJS Leadership and Development Program (LDP) alumni engaged in their Jewish Communities. 

Advocacy 

World-class campaigns with a reach of 120,000+

The primary Jewish voice on campuses, fighting Anti-Semitism.

Leadership & Development

5,700+ young Jewish leaders developed.

38% of AUJS Leadership Development Program (LDP) alumni become CEOs. 

International Programs 

10,000+ Israel program participants.

$80m+ invested in the Israeli economy.

Social Events

18 Campuses in 6 regions, across Australia and New Zealand, host a variety of events near you. 

These events include Purim, Pesach, Yom Ha'atzmaut, bar nights, political seminars, AUJS Ball, end of semester catchup and BBQs 

The Susan Wakil Fellowship 

Each year, 14 University students participate in the Susan Wakil Fellowship.

The Fellowship provides a nurturing platform for Jewish students to learn how to make an impact upon the issues that are being felt by their fellow students and fellow Australians.


AUJS is an Affiliate of the World Union of Jewish Students.
