Students

Masorti Germany organises seminars for Jewish students and young adults from all over Europe, in cooperation with MAROM, the international organisation of Masorti students.

The main goals are:
- to make the participants, who   very often feel isolated from their   local community, feel comfortable   and at home
- to strengthen the feeling of   belonging to a community through   mutual exchange
- to let them experience their   individual Jewish identity   together with others in a   surrounding of traditional Judaism
- to provide the opportunity to experience the daily life of   traditional Judaism in a modern world, together with other   international students and young adults.

Cooperation of Marom - Jung und Jüdisch (young and jewish)

Marom, the organisation of young adults and students of Masorti, offers regular activities such as kiddushim, meetings and seminars in cooperation with Jung und Jüdisch Berlin.

Hana Gross is our MAROM coordinator.

From December 4th to 7th 2009, a "Marom Europe kick off meeting" took place in Paris with Marom coordinators from Hungary, Spain, UK, Germany and France. During this meeting, we developed common European Marom projects. More information here.

In 2010, the Marom Europe coordinators met in March in London. Marom Europe is planning to hold two seminars in 2011, both with the topics "social justice", "voluntary work" and "participation". The first, smaller coordinators seminar will take place in May in Valencia, the second much bigger seminar will take place in August in Hungary. If you are interested, please send us an email.
