Limmud events are organised by volunteers who, as "volunticipants", also take part as equals in the conference.〔 Limmud's largest group of volunteers are in their 20s and 30s. The Limmud model, first developed in the UK, has now spread to many other countries.〔According to the Charity Commission, Limmud operates throughout England and Wales and also in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belarus, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Croatia, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Israel, Italy, Lithuania, Macedonia, Netherlands, New Zealand, Peru, Poland, Romania, Russia, Scotland, Serbia, South Africa, Sweden, Turkey, Ukraine and the United States of America.〕 Nearly 70 communities in 34 countries on six continents have hosted Limmud events including, in 2013 for the first time, Hong Kong, Peru, India and Montenegro.〔 There are 18 Limmud communities in the United States and eight in Israel.〔 Limmud International supports networks of Limmud volunteers in establishing and developing Limmud communities overseas. It provides training, mentoring and support for Limmud groups, and offers a forum for the sharing of ideas and best practices.〔 ==Limmud in North America== Limmud arrived in New York in 2005.
