    In this lecture, Tal Becker will examine the current struggle Israel faces and its profound implications for Jewish peoplehood. As Israel grapples with internal and external challenges, Jewish communities worldwide are feeling the impact. Becker will explore how these dynamics are reshaping Jewish identity, solidarity and the evolving relationship between Israeli and Diaspora Jews. Through insightful analysis, he will address the difficult questions that arise for Jews everywhere: How does this fight define who we are as a people? What does it demand of us in terms of values, commitment and collective responsibility? Join us for a thought-provoking exploration of Israel's battle and its lasting impact on the future of Jewish peoplehood.

    The event will take place in English.
