{UAH} Ugandan Jews Make Stride in Gaining Formal Recognition From Israel - Jewish World News - Haaretz - Israel News Haaretz.com
A community of Jewish converts in Africa has won an important concession in its struggle to gain formal recognition from the State of Israel.
In an official letter sent to a leader of the Conservative movement in Israel, the Jewish Agency has ruled that the Abayudaya Jews of Uganda are a "recognized" community. Only converts from officially recognized communities are eligible for citizenship in Israel under the Law of Return.
