NCJW Women and Gender Studies Program and Women
Studies Forum at Tel Aviv University
The NCJW Women and Gender Studies Program at Tel Aviv University officially
opened on October 21, 2001 and became the first bachelor's degree-granting
program of its kind in the Middle East. Using an interdisciplinary
approach to teaching and research, the program stresses critical analysis of the
role of women and other minorities in institutions of all kinds, public and
private. The National Council of Jewish Women endowment provides for the
degree-granting program and its complement, the NCJW Women Studies Forum, a
voluntary group of faculty advancing research and analysis while offering
courses, public conferences and community service.
Yad B’ Yad
NCJW's Initiative to Nurture Knowledge is a grant program supporting
grassroots organizations serving at-risk children and their families in
Israel. Launched in 1998, the Yad B'Yad program has funded hundreds of grants
since its inception, providing multi-lingual books, computer equipment, and
other educational materials to foster positive and innovative learning
environments for individuals of all backgrounds.
