ABOUT IENGAGE
The goal of the iEngage Project is to respond to growing feelings of disenchantment and disinterest toward Israel among an ever-increasing number of Jews worldwide by creating a new narrative regarding the significance of Israel for Jewish life. Learn more about iEngage.

The Shalom Hartman Institute of North America is honored to be supported by the Koret Foundation’s Initiative on Jewish Peoplehood. The Initiative on Jewish Peoplehood believes that the ongoing vitality of the Jewish people lies in the richness of its communal life, the vibrancy and diversity of its cultural and spiritual expression, and the shared experiences that inspire a sense of connectedness to Jews everywhere and in every generation.
