The Legacy Heritage Fellowship Program

Our Mission
The Legacy Heritage Fellowship Program seeks to build a global community of outstanding leaders and influential opinion makers. It supports exceptional post graduates in North America, Europe and Israel who have committed to a year-long internship in a major governmental, non-governmental, think-tank or media setting. Mentored by senior executives in their placements and informed by specially-designed seminars, the Legacy Heritage Fellows with their comprehensive knowledge of historical and intellectual trends, serve as articulate proponents of Middle East peace.
Our Philosophy
Apprenticeship is the model of Jewish leadership since Joshua; experience is the best educator. The Legacy Heritage Fellowship believes in identifying the best, brightest, and most passionate post graduates, and providing them with an intensive hands-on and high-level fellowship year at key think-tank, governmental and non-governmental organizations where they are mentored by senior executives.

Skill sets, however, represent only one portion of a Fellow's training. We believe that the cultivation of the soul, of the innate humanness and individuality of each potential leader, is as compelling a need as hands-on training. Seminars, close mentoring, and provocative and stimulating lectures are all essential elements of the broader education provided to Legacy Heritage Fellows. Exposure to the best practices and lifetime wisdom of seasoned Jewish communal leaders inform the substance and judgments Legacy Heritage Fellows will make in decades to come.
