The Willy Brandt Center Jerusalem

The Willy Brandt Center (WBC) is a unique center for encounters and communication in Jerusalem. Here young people from the entire world meet and engage in cultural exchange beyond borders. Within the framework of our events, we are able to overcome conflicts in multifaceted ways.

Politics, education, and culture–with our projects, seminars, and get-togethers we are looking for long-term solutions for a peaceful future in the region. The basis for such progress is trust and solidarity between people. “Peace is not everything, but without peace everything is nothing.” This quote from Willy Brandt serves as the guiding theme of the WBC.

Politics, education, culture! With our projects we strive to support both our local partners, and to contribute to peace in the region. We work with political activists, young people from youth organizations, and artists.
