Contact Tracing, Civil Liberties and Public Health with Rabbi Shahar
Tuesday, October 27, 2020 • 9 Cheshvan 5781
12:00 PM - 1:00 PMThis week's workshop is co-led by none other than Rabbi Shahar Colt! CDT is excited to co-sponsor this series by T'ruah:
In May 2020, T’ruah launched “Jewish Law and Ethics: a hackathon for the age of COVID-19,” with the goal of applying Jewish wisdom, including halakhah (Jewish law), history, ethics, and lived experience, to ethical and human rights questions that have risen in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our eight scholars have been hard at work discovering Jewish sources that speak to four crucial ethical questions, and crafting Jewish guidelines for navigating these challenges in our current moment and beyond.
We are thrilled to share the results of this project with the broader Jewish community. Below you will find information on webinars on each project topic, links to the source material our scholars have gathered, and guidelines grounded in Jewish law and ethics for navigating these challenging questions.
Webinar Series
Join us for all four classes this October, or drop in for a single class in the series!
*PLEASE NOTE that while all webinars are on Tuesdays, they do not all take place at the same time of day.*
Contact Tracing, Civil Liberties and Public Health
Rabbi Shahar Colt and Rabbi Ben Gurin
Tuesday, October 27, 2020, 12:00-1:00pm ET
Contact tracing is an essential tool for fighting the spread of COVID-19, but many recent tech-based suggestions about how to implement this public-health strategy broadly and quickly raise serious privacy concerns. How should Jews approach these concerns about contact tracing? How do we maintain values of liberty, privacy and public safety in extraordinary circumstances? Register here.
Resources
Check back here in the coming weeks for links to resources developed by our scholars, including source sheets, videos, and guidelines for Jewish ethical practice.
