About Progressive Judaism in Tel Aviv

Committed to a dynamic, relevant Judaism that embraces modernity, equality, and social action.

The Company for the Development of the Movement for Progressive Judaism in Tel Aviv-Yafo Ltd. (TJL) is dedicated to advancing a vision of Judaism that is deeply rooted in tradition yet responsive to contemporary Israeli life. We strive to create welcoming and inclusive Jewish spaces that foster spiritual searching, critical thought, and active engagement with pressing social issues.

Our work spans across several vital areas:

  • Promoting religious pluralism and freedom of worship
  • Championing social justice (Tikkun Olam) and human rights
  • Developing innovative Jewish educational programs for all ages
  • Building vibrant, egalitarian Jewish communities across Israel

As a leading voice within the broader Israel Movement for Reform and Progressive Judaism, TJL contributes significantly to the Jewish and democratic character of Israel.
