Started in 1880, World ORT is today operational in 37 countries and helps around 300 000 students around the world. Specialised in technology, our mission is to provide communities wherever they are, with the skills and knowledge necessary to cope with the complexities and uncertainties of their environment.
We teach boys and girls to master science and technology, to love their community and to contribute to society. With 300,000 Jewish – and non-Jewish – students in five continents, we’re building a better world through education.
Watch this video to see how. And be a part of the growing World ORT family.
Meet Valeria Wodka. She is one of 20 high school students taking part in advanced scientific research in Israel this summer.
Valeria, from @ORT Argentina, has joined the World ORT-Davidson summer school at the Weizmann Institute of Science to study the interaction between embryos and oxygen.
Her project will study whether, by deleting enzymes responsible for providing oxygen from the mother’s blood to the embryo, the embryo can either source oxygen from elsewhere, or live without it.
We wish Valeria - and all the students - good luck for their research.

[ORT in the News with EJewish Philanthropy] Congratulations to ORT Russia for partnering with J-Camp, a leading Jewish Summer camp in the Moscow region, bringing Robotics Labs to kids aged 6-10.
“Striving for knowledge and obtaining new skills are key values for Jews all over the world, and especially in the countries of the former Soviet Union. As a Jewish camp, J-Camp offers an array of educational opportunities for kids who are eager to learn, even during their summer holidays. We at Genesis Philanthropy Group welcome the new partnership between ORT and J-Camp, which will introduce science and technology classes to the program, allowing children to forge an authentic intellectual connection between their various interests.” said Natalie Shnaiderman, Director of Global Grantmaking, Genesis Philanthropy Group

This week we are delighted to launch a new edition of the Davidson-World ORT Science Summer School at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel! ORT students from around the world will be conducting cutting-edge scientific research projects and be exposed to high level academic experts.
The three-week summer school presents a unique opportunity for students to undertake undergraduate-level scientific research in a university environment in fully equipped laboratories.
Iris Limoni Wolf, World ORT Kadima Mada Chief Pedagogical Officer, attended the opening ceremony yesterday at the Weizmann Institute of Science and was proud to meet the 20 students who gave up their summer holidays and time at the swimming pool to study science with us this summer.
“It is actually not only about science. The summer school will teach the students some of the most important 21st-century skills like collaborative work, problem solving and critical thinking.
World ORT is great at bringing the ORT network together. Twelve countries are represented at the Davidson-World ORT Science Summer School at the Weizmann Institute this year,” she said.
Is there any better way to learn collaborative work and science than to do it with people from a different country, culture and mother tongue?

Incredible time! World ORT what about reunion of Kadima Mada alumni?
Well done
Wonderful!
It was with great sadness that we learned this week of the passing of Betty Schoenbaum.
Over the past decade, Betty had become not only a great friend and donor to ORT but also a beloved member of the ORT family.
It is her passion for her Judaism, for education and for the young that led her to invest in our plans for Kiryat Yam. Thanks to her great generosity, we together transformed a small, struggling coastal town into a thriving science city, centred around the Alex and Betty Schoenbaum Science, Educational, Cultural and Sports Campus.
Named for her departed husband as well as for Betty herself, the Campus, formed of renovated schools, a science center, a science park, a planetarium, an oceanarium and athletics facilities, has given the local population a great boost in terms of quality of education received, vastly improving their prospects for the future. Kiryat Yam itself is also benefitting from the influx of visitors from around the country.
Betty’s legacy will shine on through Kiryat Yam’s students and the confident, successful and community-minded adults that they promise to become, thanks to her love, generosity and care.

ORT ninth grade informatics and technology teacher Ignat Ignatov has just won the Teacher of the Year Moscow 2018 competition.
A staff member at Moscow ORT Technology School, Ignat surpassed 11,000 other contenders. “This is a great honor and responsibility,” he said, adding, “We have an excellent team. The children have the opportunity to realize their most challenging engineering ideas.”
Ignat delivered a speech, wrote an essay and presented a concept in a video before advancing to the finalist stage, where he taught a master class and completed a project before being named the winner.
He would like to expand the 3D modelling studio and says, “Next year we will study more design programs. And I really want to study and create neural networks, and introduce this theme in school projects.”
His award underscores the fact that ORT makes an impact through education. Mazal tov, Ignat!
