LJY-Netzer, the Youth Movement of Liberal Judaism is a formal member of the Zionist movement UK. Founded in 1947 as FLPJYG (Federation of Liberal and Progressive Jewish Youth Groups), it was renamed in 2004.[1]
They run a host of events around the country throughout the year for young people aged between 8 and 23 years old.
LJY-Netzer are a branch of Netzer Olami, the worldwide Progressive Zionist youth organisation. This gives them a link to thousands of other progressive Jewish young people in more than a dozen countries around the world.
LJY-Netzer’s events include day events, youth clubs, overnight residential, longer camps and trips abroad. The flagship events are spring camp (Machaneh Aviv), the amazing summer camp (Machaneh Kadimah), Europe Tour (Kayitz), Israel Tour and a gap-year programme in Israel for 18-year-olds (Shnat Netzer).
LJY-Netzer is run by a team of professionals called movement workers, based at Liberal Judaism’s head office in Central London, and a larger group of volunteers who help on nationwide events.
LJY-Netzer is an ideological youth movement. This means they have a set of values that guide everything they do. There are four main pillars of LJY-Netzer’s ideology: Liberal Judaism, Progressive Zionism, Tikkun Olam and Youth Empowerment. The ideology shapes how they run the movement, ensuring that all aspects of the ideology are covered on each event.[2]
