Mission Statement
Founded in 1925, the YIVO Institute is headquartered in New York City and is the world’s premier academic institute devoted to teaching and the study of East European Jewish history, language and culture and their influence in America. YIVO is dedicated to fostering knowledge of the ongoing story of Jewish life, with a focus on the history and culture of East European Jewry—the ancestry of a significant proportion of Jews in the world today.
About This Cause
The YIVO Institute for Jewish Research is dedicated to the preservation and study of the history and culture of East European Jewry worldwide. We are the home of the foremost archives and library on this history and the presenter of acclaimed exhibitions, concerts, and lectures. For nearly a century, YIVO has pioneered new forms of Jewish scholarship, research, education, and cultural expression. Scholars continue to uncover new layers of the story in our archives and library, one of the world’s most important resources on Jewish life and history in Europe; Yiddish language, literature, and folklore; the Holocaust; and the American Jewish immigrant experience. We bring you our discoveries, insights, and treasures from our collections through our programs, courses, exhibitions, award-winning publications, and websites.
