Bet Debora - Jewish Women's Perspectives

by Bet Debora

In our monthly podcasts we speak with different Jewish women from around the globe - rabbis and cantors, politicians and activists, artists and women in academia. We talk about their activities, their concerns and their achievements, their lives as Jews and their lives as women. With these conversations, we aim to highlight our positions as Jewish women and encourage new strategies for strengthening our roles in society.We thank Vienna Women's Affairs, MA57, for the generous support of our podcasts. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
