Public Events

Overview and Objectives

Lectures  |  Literary Evenings  |  Partial Calendar of 2010–2011 Events

Director: Shulamit Laron

The Institute's public reputation rests on two pillars: the quality of its fellows and their work, and its considerable position as a national forum for public discourse on ethical, political and cultural issues. Between 2003 and 2006, the Institute anticipates considerable growth in the volume and intensity of its public activity portfolio.

The Institute initiates a broad range of international conferences, public symposia and lectures that enable the public to participate in intellectual, cultural, political and social forums led by prominent Israeli and international scholars and public personalities. Please see coming events:

• Lectures
• Literary Evenings
• Partial Calendar of 2010–2011 Events (in English)
• Full Calendar of Events (in Hebrew)

Some of these activities are broadcast live online and some are recorded on video. Video recordings can be found here.


Sponsorship & Collaboration
The Institute's public events have been enabled in part by specific and ongoing collaborations with various organizations. Among these we are proud to mention the kind sponsorship of the European Union Delegation in Israel, as well as the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, the Edelstein Center at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and the Cohn Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Ideas at Tel Aviv University.
