The International Interfaith Diplomacy Fellowship serves as a professional home and global network for rabbis, educators, and communal leaders committed to advancing interfaith engagement in line with the Center’s vision.
The program offers opportunities for deep learning and meaningful engagement, including dialogue with religious leaders in Israel and worldwide, lectures, writing and publishing initiatives, and the development of educational programs. Through these activities, fellows gain the tools, knowledge, and networks needed to lead impactful interfaith work in their communities.
The program launched in 2025, and its second cohost launched in early 2026. This work has always been complex and urgent. In the wake of October 7th, its importance has only grown. As the war in Gaza ends, a new chapter opens for Israelis and Palestinians, the Middle East, and Judaism and Islam at large. As President Trump’s 20 Points Peace Plan reminds us, peace agreements alone cannot heal hearts. Clause 18 calls for “an interfaith dialogue process based on tolerance and coexistence.” The Jerusalem Interfaith Center (JIC) is uniquely positioned to make that vision real—through faith, education, and genuine partnership. We invite rabbis worldwide to join us.
