Cambridge University is hosting the world’s only programme that creates an international social entrepreneurs network to improve Jewish-Muslim relations. The Ariane de Rothschild (AdR) Fellowship brings together Muslim and Jewish social entrepreneurs from UK, France and USA to participate in a unique model for conflict resolution at Cambridge University’s Judge Business School. The AdR Fellowship is the brainchild of Firoz Ladak, the Muslim executive director of the Edmond and Benjamin de Rothschild Foundations. Now in its third year, 24 social entrepreneurs will participate in this year’s programme.
