The convention will culminate with the World Union for Progressive Judaism International Humanitarian Awards Dinner, at which Leah Rabin and Rabbi Jerome K. Davidson will be honored. Registration closes at the end of May for a gathering of young adults aged 19 and up to be held on 9-13 September in Megeve, France. Participants will study with a noted movement scholar and seek out modern themes and issues in traditional texts. The CILG-GIL community in nearby Geneva, where European Region president Francois Garai serves as rabbi, is organising the gathering. The SFr 150 fee includes food, lodging and round-trip transportation from Geneva.
Some funding is available.
Among the planned activities are open-forum educational sessions and workshops for the many people who have already signified their willingness to assist. It will come with a compact disc of Pesach music.
