The Woolf Institute is an academic institute in Cambridge, England, dedicated to the study of relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims.[1] The aim of the Woolf Institute is to use research and education to explore the relationship between religion and society and reduce intolerance. The Woolf Institute is named in honour of Lord Harry Woolf (former Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales) and was founded by Dr Edward Kessler MBE and the Revd Professor Martin Forward. Beginning as the Centre for Jewish-Christian Relations, the Institute later expanded to include the Centre for the Study of Muslim-Jewish Relations – the first and only centre in Europe dedicated to fostering a better understanding of relations between Muslim and Jews – and the Centre for Policy and Public Education. In 2010, these Centres were amalgamated under the designation "Woolf Institute", in honour of Lord Harry Woolf, former Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales.[2] The Woolf Institute is a member of the Cambridge Theological Federation which brings together eleven institutions through which people of different churches, including Anglican, Methodist, Eastern Orthodox, Reformed and Roman Catholic, train for various forms of Christian ministry and service.[3] The Woolf Institute is located in central Cambridge on the Westminster College, Cambridge Site.[4] CoursesThe Woolf Institute currently works together with the Cambridge Commonwealth Trust and the Cambridge Overseas Trust to offer the Woolf Institute Cambridge Scholarship, a PhD scholarship for the study of relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims.[5] The Woolf Institute also contributes to the newly reconstituted MPhil in Middle East Studies at the University of Cambridge [6][7] and offers a Professional Doctorate in collaboration with the Cambridge Theological Federation and Anglia Ruskin University.[8] Patrons
