European Association of Israel Studies (EAIS)

European Association of Israel Studies

The European Association of Israel Studies (EAIS) is an independent, international and scholarly association devoted to the academic study of Israel. It is politically neutral. The EAIS is committed to rigorous academic scholarship about Israel and high quality research and teaching in this area, as well as to increasing the breadth of study of this important part of a wider understanding of the Middle East.

The EAIS will be based for an initial period of 4 years at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London (SOAS). SOAS is the only Higher Education institution in the UK specialising in the study of Asia, Africa and the Near and Middle East.   

In accordance with its charter, the EAIS is run by an Executive Committee. The Executive Committee of the EAIS comprises:
