The Australian Jewish Association (AJA) is an Australian Jewish community organisation with a membership based structure guided by Torah principles and aligned with right-wing,[1] conservative values.[2] AJA asserts that their public policy outlook is rooted in traditional Halachic principles and states that they are welcoming of members of all levels of observance who have an emphasis on support for Israel.

Founded in 2017, the AJA has gained prominence through strategic social media engagement and presence in mainstream media outlets such as The Australian and Sky News Australia.[3] Moreover, AJA makes submissions to the Australian Government on public policy matters affecting Jewish Australians.[4]
