Beit Ben-Yehuda International Meeting Center

Founded in 2004, Beit Ben-Yehuda International Meeting Center is a non-governmental organisation based in Jerusalem, Israel working on education, peace & conflict.

Beit Ben-Yehuda is a non-profit international meeting center, guesthouse and youth hostel in Jerusalem. Founded in 2004 by Aktion Sühnezeichen Friedensdienste (ASF), it operates as an Israeli-German education and cultural centre that aims to strengthen relations between Israelis and people from around the world. The centre focuses on German-Israeli relations and offers seminars, workshops, lectures, language courses and other events on historical, sociological, political, and cultural topics, including programmes on National Socialism, the Middle East conflict, and Christian-Jewish relations. It also hosts groups and individual guests, and relies on volunteers, including European Solidarity Corps volunteers. The house is the historical family home of Eliezer Ben-Yehuda, the reviver of modern Hebrew, and serves as a commemorative and cultural site.
