A Message from Our President

October 12, 2023

The Oxford Centre for Hebrew & Jewish Studies is starting its academic year this week in tragic circumstances. We are all deeply affected by the war raging in Israel and Gaza, and we express our wishes of safety and peace to all.

We have been and continue to be in touch with our colleagues and students who are directly affected. We express our solidarity with them and are hoping for their safety.

Please see the following page outlining the University of Oxford’s response to recent events: https://www.ox.ac.uk/news-and-events/university-response-israel-gaza-middle-east.

Sincerely,

Professor Judith Olszowy-Schlanger, FBA
President of the Oxford Centre for Hebrew & Jewish Studies
