“Being #Jewish is a #religion of risk, but no one will stop us from going to #synagogue or from celebrating and commemorating our holidays as #Jews,” #EstrellaBengio, president of the Jewish Community of #Madrid, told #JNS on Wednesday.
#Bengio was attending the #YaelFoundation’s fourth annual education summit in #Vienna, which this year focused on resilience, innovation, leadership, Jewish identity and the challenges of modern education.
Lectures at the summit included, on Tuesday: “Positive Leadership: The Science of Happiness” by #TalBenShahar, examining the intersection of leadership, psychology and well-being, and on Wednesday, “Harnessing the Hacker Mindset” by #KerenElazari, linking cybersecurity, innovation and leadership, and “Igniting Excellence in the Next Generation,” outlining the vision of Yael Foundation CEO #ChayaYosovich.
Bengio described #Spain’s Jewish community—particularly in Madrid—as young, growing and vibrant."
