Be'er Sheva Campus Footprint - World Zionist Village - JNF

Village Footprint

Beautifully designed on 16 acres of land and historically situated in Be’er Sheva – the fastest growing city in Israel — the Village will offer an oasis of thought, study and innovation, with long and short-term educational programs, engaging forums and research opportunities for people of all ages.

The Be’er Sheva municipality offered Jewish National Fund 20 acres for our new campus right in the heart of the Be’er Sheva River Park. Just minutes away from the amphitheater, sporteque, the Be’er Sheva Lake, Israel’s biggest mall, a swim club, restaurants, a high-tech park, Ben Gurion University and more. The campus will include short-and long-term lodging, study areas, dining facilities, restaurants, synagogues, community space, leisure activities, and a beautifully landscaped outdoor space.

This ecosystem will provide private space for the Alexander Muss High School in Israel classrooms and dormitories. Similarly, young adults interning with Be’er Sheva high-tech companies will have their own separate living accommodations on campus as will the adults learning at the Zionist Education Center. The amazing result will be Jews of all ages convening on the campus interacting in the shared spaces and creating a one-of-a-kind campus for global Jewry revolutionizing Zionist and Jewish educational engagement for decades ahead.
