Autoridad Nasionala del Ladino

Autoridad Nasionala del Ladino (Ladino pronunciation: [autoɾiˈdað nasjoˈnala del laˈdino], "National Authority of Ladino") is a national Israeli organisation created in 1997 with the goal of preserving and safeguarding Judaeo-Spanish, commonly known as Ladino.

The authority was established in the wake of a law passed by the Knesset on 3 March 1996. It publishes the Ladino magazine Aki Yerushalayim for the Sephardi community in Israel and the diaspora. The first chairman of the board was the fifth president of Israel, Yitzhak Navon. The vice-president and editor-in-chief of Aki Yerushalayim is Moshe Shaul.

A successor organisation was announced by the Association of Spanish Language Academies in 2017, ^[1] and created the following year as Akademia Nasionala del Ladino
