Jewish Futures 2025

Jewish Futures 2025 is not your typical conference. It’s a bold convening of visionary leaders, educators, and changemakers, exploring hope as the driving force behind Jewish education and communal transformation. Culminating with A Conversation about Hope & Resilience with Rachel Goldberg-Polin and Jon Polin, this immersive, interactive experience will spark new visions of a Jewish future rooted in optimism and resilience. Together, we will uncover the science and spirit of hope, challenge inherited assumptions, and imagine new possibilities for Jewish learning.

The Jewish Education Project is prioritizing this work because AI is not just another new tool; it is a shift in how knowledge is created, accessed, and used. This moment calls on educators like you to lead with curiosity, wisdom, and values — guiding your students toward responsible and meaningful engagement with technology. In each session over the course of the year, you will have a chance to experience hands-on strategies, real classroom examples, and guided reflection that connects directly to your practice. You’ll leave with practical tools and a deeper understanding of how AI can amplify what matters most in Jewish education: human thinking, ethical discernment, and purposeful learning. All session recordings, tools and resources will be added to this collection as they are available, so check back often!
