The Formation of Gettlink:

In 2002, at JOFA's Fourth International Conference on Feminism and Orthodoxy, representatives from 13 organizations met to discuss what could be done to unite agunah advocacy efforts around the globe. The result of this meeting was the creation of Gettlink, an online forum for agunah activists, by invitation only, which enables participants to more effectively communicate and provide world-wide support to agunot.

Gettlink Today:

Gettlink now serves 15 organizations in over 47 countries that seek to ease and resolve the plight of agunot. This internet connection enables agunah activists to exchange information regarding individual cases and civil legislation in their search for acceptable halakhic solutions in Israel and throughout the Diaspora.

For more information or to contact an organization on Gettlink, email agunah@jofa.org
