As Senior Vice President, International Affairs, Marina G. Rosenberg oversees ADL’s work combating antisemitism and hate outside of the United States as well as supporting the Jewish and democratic state of Israel. She leads a team of professionals in the U.S., Europe and Israel pursuing ADL’s mission of fighting antisemitism globally, promoting the security of Jewish communities around the world, and advocating for a safe and democratic State of Israel.

A former ambassador and diplomat, Marina will be joining ADL in early 2023 after 16 years of service in Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs leading diplomatic missions abroad. She was appointed the country’s first female Ambassador to Chile in 2019 and spearheaded the fight against antisemitism, antizionism, and the anti-Israel BDS movement in that country. Her other diplomatic posts have included Director of the Gulf Department (2017-19), Counsellor for Foreign Affairs in the Embassy of Israel in Germany (2014-17), and Head of Mission in the United Arab Emirates office (2012-14). During her service in South America, Europe and the Persian Gulf region, Marina worked to revitalize Israel’s image and strengthen its bilateral relations while promoting social impact diplomacy.

From 2017 to 2019, Marina also led the Women in Diplomacy Network, a group she co-founded, where she organized dozens of events with other female leaders and brought together Israeli and international female diplomats with the purpose of promoting gender equality in international diplomacy.

A native of Buenos Aires, Argentina, Marina and her family immigrated to Israel when she was six years old. She earned a B.A. in Political Science and Latin American Studies from Hebrew University and an M.A. in Diplomacy and Security Studies from Tel Aviv University.
