Register in advance. Forward Focus is a four-part educational series that explores the importance and development of religious pluralism in Israel. Over the course of four days, experts, religious leaders, and changemakers will discuss the growing prevalence of practicing Judaism within the religious and cultural framework, but outside traditional norms.

Topics will include:
The power balance between religion and state
The evolution of lifecycle events in Israel
Shabbat programming and religious freedom
LGBTQ community and Judaism
How philanthropy is powering change

Forward Focus will take a look at all Israelis’ rights to practice Judaism uniquely and freely.
