The Leo Baeck Institute Jerusalem for the Study of German-Jewish History and Culture is an international academic research institute established to promote research into German and Central-European Jewry in the modern era and to further the liberal heritage of German Judaism in contemporary Israeli society. Founded in 1955 in Jerusalem and named after the last public representative of German Jewry, Rabbi Leo Baeck, the Institute has branches in Jerusalem, London and New York/Berlin, and a scholarly working group in Germany. The work of the Leo Baeck Institute Jerusalem is based on three pillars: research, a cultural program, and archival documentation. In our activities, we reach out to students and scholars as well as to the public in both Israel and Germany.

The Leo Baeck Institute Jerusalem, together with Leo Baeck Institute London and the Institute’s Friends Association are planning an exhibition about the Berlin Hochschule für die Wissenschaft des Judentums, which will include both physical as well as online displays. The project aims at engaging a broad international audience to contribute content as citizen scientists. The exhibition and its campaign will be launched in Autumn of 2023 and run until the end of 2024. The project is funded by the Foundation Remembrance, Responsibility and Future (EVZ) and the German Federal Ministry of Finance (BMF) as part of the Education Agenda ‘NS-Injustice’.

We are seeking proposals from experienced and creative professionals to develop the exhibition concept and oversee its execution.
