Leo Baeck Institute/מכון ליאו בק
The Leo Baeck Institute (LBI), founded in 1955, was named after Rabbi Leo Baeck, the last public representative of the Jewish community in Nazi Germany. LBI Jerusalem was founded by prominent Jewish intellectuals including Martin Buber, Gershom Scholem, Ernst Simon and Hugo Bergman, alongside two parallel Leo Baeck institutes in London and New York. All three centers operate independently, while cooperation is achieved by the International Executive Committee.
Leo Baeck Institute Jerusalem promotes the study and research of the history and culture of Jews in the German-speaking space, in a variety of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences.
