JJ Greenberg Memorial Award - 2020 Winner

"My name is Meir Mouyal, I'm 21 and I live in Barcelona, Spain. Since I was young, I have always been involved in the Jewish community. It all began at the Jewish school of Barcelona, meanwhile I was also a Janij at the Tnuá and eventually became a Madrij. Currently, I'm finishing a Bachelor's Degree in Informatics Engineering, and in my free time I like to think, read and learn about philosophy and psychology. For this reason, with the help of Rabbi Daniel Ashkenazi, the Rabbi of my jewish community, and Andre, the youth director of my jewish community, we decided to start the Hevruta project. The goal of Hevruta is to encourage young jews to debate relevant controversial topics present in our day to day. Hevruta sessions not only promote critical thinking, but they also always provide the point of view of Judaism towards the topics in the discussion. And that's why we love it."
