Conversations about Israel on campus can be loud, fast and confusing. Your Israel is a six-week Chabad on Campus course designed to slow things down and dig deeper than the politics on the ground, giving students real answers to the questions they hear most.
The course explores what the Land of Israel means in Jewish tradition, how that connection has shaped Jewish identity for thousands of years, and how students can think and talk about Israel today with knowledge and confidence.
Why students take it
Many students grew up with a warm connection to Israel but never learned the ideas behind it. Others feel pressure to have an opinion on every headline. Your Israel gives both a foundation: the texts, history and meaning behind the Jewish connection to the land, in a setting where every question is welcome.
Where it leads
Your Israel pairs naturally with an Israel trip. Students often take the course before or after Birthright, and some go on to study in Israel.
Questions about Your Israel
Is Your Israel a political course?
It is not an advocacy training. The course focuses on the Jewish meaning of Israel and helps students think through current questions from a place of knowledge.
How long is the Your Israel course?
Six weeks, taught in person at participating Chabad Houses.
