About Us
Chochmat Nashim creates change in the global Jewish society by challenging dangerous trends in Jewish communities around the world. Using new and traditional media we shed light on societal norms that exclude women and feed extremism.
We target the increasing erasure of women from publications, the exclusion of women from policy making decisions, poor health due to hyper-modesty, and the damage to the Jewish community as a result of these trends. We identify the issues, articulate them to a global audience and give communities tools for change.
Our work can be seen in The Times of Israel, The Jerusalem Post, The Forward, The UK Jewish Chronicle, Kipa.co.il, our JewishCoffeeHouse.com podcast, and here on our site.
