The Rossing Centre for Education and Dialogue is an interreligious organisation based in Jerusalem which promotes an inclusive society for all religious, ethnic and national groups. Through education, encounter, research and consulting, the Rossing Centre promotes better relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims in the Holy Land.
In line with our mission and theory of change, our activities are designed to foster the desire and build the capacity of Israelis and Palestinians, Jews, Christians and Muslims, to create inclusive, just societies for all. Our projects and programs fall under three main spheres of action:
· Our Education Department aims to enable the Israeli education system to educate the next generation of Jews and Arabs to develop open, pluralistic identities to be tolerant of difference and to be ready to live together and side by side in an inclusive society.
· Our Dialogue Department projects focus on engaging Jews and Arabs to act cohesively together to make the mixed spaces in which they live, work and study, shared and inclusive.
· Our International Engagement Department provides encounter, research and information services to local and international audiences. This enables the valuable exchange of ideas vis-à-vis effective peacebuilding between the Rossing Center and institutions and organisations in other countries – learning from each other’s experiences and practices.
To date, we have collaborated with over 140 religious, interfaith, intercultural, educational and public bodies.
