University of Warwick: Warwick Centre for Global Jewish Studies arrives

A new Centre for Global Jewish Studies has been created at the University of Warwick.

Co-directors Dr Anna Hájková and Professor Stephen Shapiro say that the Centre’s goal is to increase awareness, promote conversation, and lead research into the richness and variety of Jewish heritage and experience across time and place.

Its founding directors aim to look beyond academia and engage the local community and the public at large with Global Jewish Studies in creative and innovative ways.
