Haredi population growth: Considering the implications

By 2040, at least one in five Jews will be Haredi. How can community leaders manage the changes that are coming?

Dr Jonathan Boyd

JPR’s groundbreaking report, Haredi Jews around the world: population trends and estimates, demonstrates that one in seven Jews around the world is now strictly Orthodox, and projects that proportion to climb to one in five by 2040. In this webinar, four specialists in contemporary Jewish life consider the implications of this major compositional shift in the denominational make-up of the global Jewish population and explore how community leaders might best manage it.
