At JEWS UNITED, we are committed to supporting our communities in a progressive manner, grounded in the principles of Identity, Dignity, Impact, and Innovation. We advocate for a state-centered Judaism that blends universal values with a contemporary approach, while maintaining political and religious neutrality.

​

JEWS UNITED operates with a sense of purpose, working to connect Jewish culture with contemporary challenges through fostering positive dialogue and implementing practical actions. Our goal is to advance a society where Jewish culture and values increasingly integrate with broader cultural norms and a commitment to justice and social rights.

​

Through cultural initiatives, collaboration with communities, and public activities, we aim to be a beacon of positive impact in our communities and the public sphere at large. We see ourselves as a leading force in promoting an advanced and values-driven society, investing our talents and influence to drive meaningful change.

JEWS UNITED is a socio-cultural activist movement founded with the vision of advancing cosmopolitan Judaism and spreading benevolent values. Established in Israel and the UK, the movement has also developed partnerships and collaborations in Germany, the United States, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, and other countries worldwide.

​

Since 2020, our dedicated activists have been engaged in formal and informal social action, cultural events, and interfaith encounters, as well as public and legal advocacy for individual rights. We support creative communities through publishing initiatives and educational projects, and we also lead practical efforts to preserve and restore Jewish heritage sites - from Joseph’s Tomb in Nablus to other sacred locations across Judea and Samaria - ensuring that the legacy of Jewish history is protected and accessible for future generations.

​

Our mission is to unite Jews - individuals, organizations, and communities - from across the diaspora and the Land of Israel, and to shine a shared light for the world. Inspired by the Biblical figure of Yosef, who transformed challenge into vision and unity, we see in him a model for our own work today. Through building a central hub of creativity, action, and meaningful connection, we bring together diverse voices to strengthen one another and to shape a hopeful, values-driven future.

​

​The movement focuses on creating interfaith bridges and intra-social connections in three channels:

Culture

We produce, publish, and establish social centres that highlight the uniting and cosmopolitan aspects of Judaism, presenting it as a guiding light to all.

Tolerance

We organize activism, theoretical and social meetings, as well as cultural and artistic events, to foster interfaith collaboration in Israel and around the world.

Justice and human rights

We advocate for existential rights and conditions, providing legal and bureaucratic assistance. We publish works that support populations marginalized on religious and cultural grounds, both collectively and individually.

 

We address the economic and cultural crises society faces against the backdrop of profound societal and identity transformations. As individuals seek meaning and connection, the demand for a cosmopolitan society that is healing, supportive, collaborative, and creative grows. We aim to meet this need by fostering connections that transcend religious tension, political affiliation, or gender definitions.

​

By promoting these values, we help society heal and contribute to building a new world grounded in cosmopolitanism and human rights, ultimately creating a productive community that makes a significant contribution to the global society.
