We live in a time where knowledge is crowd-sourced, texts of all kinds (from books to music to art) are being re-mixed, and an abundance of information is accessible to all. As the People of the Book we are challenged with how to create meaningful educational encounters with Jewish texts in light of these and other changes.

 

The 2013 Jewish Futures Conference will explore the ways in which we are confronting the new realities of today's information age.

Featuring Keynote Speaker: Douglas Rushkoff 
  
Winner of the first Neil Postman award for Career Achievement in Public Intellectual Activity, Douglas Rushkoff is an author, teacher, and documentarian who focuses on the ways people, cultures, and institutions create, share, and influence each other's values. 
  
The Jewish Futures Conference is a joint initiative of
The Jewish Education Project and JESNA's Lippman Kanfer Institute.
