The ASF’s Institute of Jewish Experience

At the American Sephardi Federation we have a calling to ensure that today’s Jews know their history; appreciate the beauty, depth, diversity, and vitality of the Jewish experience; and have a sense of pride for the Jewish contributions to civilization. We celebrate the diversity within the Jewish people, as well as our relationships with our neighbors in our global diasporas. We also prepare our participants to contribute to a world where Jewish life is scarcely understood, yet no less appreciated or respected. Our programs present the world’s leading scholars and represent the best that is being thought and written on our topics. through our vast global network of scholars, educators, researchers, and artists we offer full on-line courses, musical programs, scholarly conferences, educational materials, teacher workshops, and a vast array of adult education options. Our flagship programs include Reclaiming Identity the Podcast, Educational films, Exclusive Authors Series, Unity Through Diversity, and Certificate of Sephardic Ancestry.
