The lecture provided Course Members with detailed, relevant and accessible information on the key canons of the Jewish faith and its historical origins. <\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">A former Chief Rabbi of Ireland and currently the International Director of Interreligious Affairs of the Global Jewish Advocacy and Director of its Heilbrunn Institute for International Interreligious Understanding, Rabbi Rosen offered an authoritative perspective on significant issues for the Jewish faith and population, such as the concept of attachment to the land, the protection of the Jewish cultural heritage and the problem of anti-Semitism.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">The lecture afforded a significant and greatly appreciated contribution to the NRCC syllabus, which aims at strengthening multicultural dialogue and mutual understanding among Course Members from different national and religious backgrounds.
