The Herzog Center for Jewish Identity
Who We Are: The Herzog Center is a home for exploring Jewish identity and connecting its diverse expressions through learning, encounter, and action. We are a Zionist organization that upholds tradition while embracing a plurality of views, dialogue, and Jewish heritage as a shared legacy for all.
Our Vision: We envision Jewish identity as a source of connection, belonging, and meaning at the national, family, and individual levels, serving as a foundation for a common language among all parts of the Jewish people.
We believe that bringing together diverse groups in Israeli society around questions of identity, giving space for individual stories through dialogue and shared value exploration, combined with social initiatives in local communities, can contribute to the diversity, resilience, and unity of Israeli society.

We operate in five main areas:
-
