European Center for Jewish Students (ECJS) is drastically changing the landscape of Jewish young adults across Europe. Based in Brussels, ECJS is a non‐profit, apolitical organization which caters to the needs and interests of all Jewish students and young professionals, regardless of background or affiliation. ECJS arrange and subsidize inter‐European retreats and seminars, which hundreds of participants value and enjoy, due to their unique blend of Jewish tradition and European culture. Spearheaded by Executive Director Rabbi Zevi Ives, ECJS has succeeded, though its wide range of innovative effective programs, in uniting young European Jews and fostering in them a strong sense of identity, community and pride.
