New Community Learning Resources
As the pandemic continues to impact people across the world, we know that rabbis are doing the important work of inspiring and caring for their communities. Sefaria's team is here to support you and help invigorate you and your congregations, with new features, powerful content, and free programming delivered at your convenience.Enjoy our New Chavruta Feature Deepen, continue, or restart your own learning with Sefaria's Chavruta feature. No need for another platform to help encourage learning: just pick a text or sheet on Sefaria, send a custom link to your partner, and begin learning virtually — all without leaving Sefaria's virtual library. Learn more about Chavruta here.Experiment with Chavruta Roulette Sefaria has created new technology for community-wide learning experiences: with a single link, participants are randomly paired and guided to texts of the rabbi's choosing. Partners can stay together or jump to another in "speed-learning" style. Sefaria's team recently began testing this feature with rabbis in the US, Israel, and Europe, and we are looking for additional testing partners. Our educators are ready to help you organize this gathering with curated materials and logistical support. Get in touch if you are interested in giving this fun new feature a try!Sefaria Workshops for Your Community Do you want your community to learn more about Sefaria?
