History
editThe Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI) is a think tank founded by the Jewish Agency in 2002 to protect and advance the Jewish people and Israel.[1]
As a think tank focused on developing policies for the Jewish world, its main focuses are the future of the Jewish people and Israel's security. Staff conduct research, analysis, and make policy recommendations on issues such as world Jewry, the delegitimization of Israel, Israel-diaspora relations, and the Israeli political process.[2][3]
JPPI was founded in 2002 by the Jewish Agency for Israel, and is run as an independent body. It is headed by a board of directors that in 2013 was chaired by Dennis Ross, the special advisor for the Persian Gulf Southwest Asia in U.S. President Barack Obama's administration.[4]
The president of JPPI is Yedidia Stern, who replaced Avinoam Bar-Yosef in 2020.
