Jewish Social Work - Tour
The tour shows the progressive concepts of Jewish social work, which were rooted in the principle of Zedakah. The Jewish institutions founded - orphanages, Jewish services at railway centers, the youth alijah school, kosher soup kitchens, communication centers and counselling services, professional education for nurses - became models for communal services because of their pioneer spirit. During the nazi period the efforts increased because of discrimination for example the Jewish winter help, preparation for emigration, new educational and counselling services ... These pioneer concepts were brought to America and Israel by German Jewish emigrants and influenced social work in these countries to an enormous extent.
Duration: about 1 1/2 hours
