The Landecker-Hillel Leadership and Empowerment Program


A strong democracy thrives on young people who get involved and help shape it. The goal of the collaboration with Hillel Deutschland e.V. is to support young Jewish adults in Germany in strengthening a pluralistic Jewish community and bringing their perspectives and concerns into broader society.

The Alfred Landecker Foundation supports the Leadership and Empowerment Program of Hillel Deutschland. The program provides young people from diverse Jewish backgrounds with a platform to engage in discussions about Jewish life in Germany, develop and implement ideas to strengthen their communities, and learn how to become effective voices in society.

The Leadership and Empowerment Program is based on two core pillars

1. Landecker-Hillel Leadership Incubator

The program empowers young Jewish leaders and equips them with key skills to actively shape and enrich their communities in a lasting way. Over the course of the nine-month program, participants receive targeted support, training, and resources to implement impactful projects within their communities — with the long-term goal of strengthening Jewish life in Germany today and for generations to come.

2. Visionssummit

The Visionssummit provides a platform for Jews to engage deeply with the topics of Jewish life, identity, and belonging in Germany. Through discussions, lectures, and workshops, participants reflect on the current state of Jewish communities and collaboratively develop ideas on what vibrant and meaningful community life could look like for them. The goal of the summit is to equip participants with insights, perspectives, and tools to actively shape the future of their communities and Jewish life in Germany.
