Dear Friends:
I am writing again to enlist your assistance in identifying and recommending candidates for the International Nahum Goldmann Fellowship which will take place in Israel at the Ohalo Manor on the Kineret on June 11-17, 2013. The Nahum Goldmann Fellowship, sponsored by the Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture, provides an intensive experience in Jewish living, learning and leadership for young men and women from around the world between the ages of 25-40 who show serious interest in Jewish culture and demonstrate a potential for individual growth and communal leadership....
The Fellowship will deal with the following themes:
Towards a Global Jewish Society; Jewish Identity and Peoplehood: Then and Now - A Diaspora Perspective; Jewish Identity and Peoplehood: Then and Now - An Israeli Perspective; Community and State: Convergences and Incompatibilities; The Lessons of Jewish History -The Role of Leadership; and Our Roles and Responsibilities: In the Diaspora Towards Israel, in Israel Towards Diaspora, and Towards"Other" Jews
Faculty in the past included some of the most distinguished academics and scholars from around the Jewish world. Faculty at the International Israeli Nahum Goldmann Fellowship will include, among others:
Prof. Ismar Schorsch, Professor of Jewish History and former Chancellor, Jewish Theological Seminary of America; Prof. Ilan Troen, Professor of Israel Studies, Brandeis University; Prof. Saul Berman, Adjunct Professor, Columbia University School of Law; Dr. Ruth Calderon, Chairperson of ALMA - The Home for Hebrew Culture; Dr. Steven Bayme, Director, Contemporary Jewish Life, American Jewish Committee; Prof. Micha Goodman, Prof. of Jewish Philosophy and Thought, Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
We believe that the International Nahum Goldmann Fellowship in Israel in June, 2013 will be as successful as the previous twenty-four that have preceded it.
To achieve the goals of the Fellowship, we need your help:
May we request that you identify appropriate candidates for this program and reproduce and distribute the attached application and tentative program to them. They can also request application formsfrom us: by fax (212) 425-6602; by email at office@mfjc.org; from the Nahum Goldmann Fellowship website: www.ngfp.org, or by writing to us: (Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture -- 50 Broadway, (34th Floor), New York, NY 10004.)
The deadline date for receipt of applications is March 1, 2013.
I know that you will give this matter your personal attention..With many thanks and warm regards.
Best wishes for a joyous Chanukah.
