The subject History of the Jewish People deals with the history and culture of the Jewish people over a period of more than two and a half thousand years

from the era of the Second Temple to contemporary history,
in its entirety as well as in its manifold manifestations,
in continuity and change in the various epochs and spaces.

PAIDEIA - Learning Across Borders

25 June 2026 News

In this episode of our podcast, we speak with two representatives from Paideia about the program, their personal visions, and the opportunities it creates for students. Noa Hermele (Director) and Łukasz Górniok (Director of Programs and Head of the One-Year Jewish Studies Program) answered our questions via Zoom.

We also explore the collaboration between Paideia and the Heidelberg University of Jewish Studies, and how this partnership enriches the M.A. in Jewish Civilizations program through academic exchange, cultural engagement, and a broader European perspective on Jewish studies. A conversation about learning, community, and the future of Jewish education in Europe.

Please forgive the less-than-ideal audio quality — we promise to do better next time.
