About the Conference<\/strong><\/h4>\n

For the first time, Kulanu will be hosting a Pan African Conference to bring together our partner communities from across Africa to learn about Jewish history, philosophy, anti-Semitism, kosher laws, music, and conversion.\u00a0 This invite-only conference is being held in conjunction with Ohr Torah Nidchei Yisrael.<\/p>\n

The Pan African Conference will be held in C\u00f4te d’Ivoire and will been rescheduled from its original date of May 2020 due to the Covid-19 global pandemic.\u00a0 Kulanu is expecting more than 50 people to attend from eight different countries across the continent.<\/p>\n

The goal of the conference is to educate participants and form relationships between all of the Jewish African communities in attendance.\u00a0 The conference will focus on various aspects of Jewish law and practice along with communication skills to bring to their communities.\u00a0 A structure for a Pan African Network for Emerging Jewish Communities will be formed.<\/p>\n
