In 2017 Australia voted yes to same sex marriage, a vote which was supported by a majority of young Australians. However while many Australian Jews were voting yes in Australia, in Israel no such vote can take place.
Join the NIF fellows as we learn more about marriage equality in Israel from the executive director of Israel Hofsheet (Be Free Israel) Uri Keidar. He will join us from Tel Aviv via video link followed by a discussion with LGBT Monash University Professor Paula Gerber and Michael Barnett from Aleph Melbourne to talk about civil and religious marriage and LGBT rights in Australia.
It will be a chance to hear perspectives from Israel, the Australian Jewish community and broader Australian society, plus a chance to ask our experts questions about the future of marriage and equality for LGBT people.
I hope you can join us for this important conversation that impacts millions of people in Israel and in Australia.
