Paideia was created in 2000 through grants from the Swedish government and the Marianne and Marcus Wallenberg Foundation as an academic and applied institute of excellence.
Dedicated to strengthening Jewish culture in Europe, Paideia – The European Institute for Jewish Studies in Sweden, educates leaders for Europe, such as academicians and community activists, in Jewish textual sources that serve as the wellsprings of Jewish and modern civilization.
Paideia’s mandate is to nurture the strengthening of European Jewish culture, to support cross-cultural dialogue and to promote a positive paradigm of minority culture within European societies. Paideia accomplishes this through highly intensive educational programs, focusing on in-depth knowledge of Jewish sources and on social entrepreneurship.
