The Diane and Guilford Glazer Foundation’s Information and Consulting Center harnesses advanced technologies to collect, analyze, and share critical data on Jewish life in Israel and across the Diaspora. In doing so, it fills a vital gap in the decision-making processes that shape the Jewish world.
The Center’s team of experts compiles and interprets data, making it accessible to the public, policymakers, and planners in government bodies, leading Jewish organizations, communities worldwide, and philanthropic foundations. By doing so, the Center provides professional, evidence-based responses to the pressing shortage of reliable information needed to make informed decisions in face of the challenges confronting the Jewish people.
Among its flagship projects are the Israeli Society Index and the Voice of the Jewish People Index (both based on monthly surveys), the Annual Assessment, the Global Communities Map, demographic studies, and a range of other research initiatives. The Center’s website uses advanced visualization tools to display large volumes of data in clear and engaging formats, though some content may take a short time to load. The Center is directed by Yaakov Katz.
