What we do

Zelman Cowen Academic Initiatives (ZCAI) was set up in 2021, to continue and build on the philanthropic tradition established by the Sir Zelman Cowen Universities Fund (1978-2021). Working as an advisory group to the Australian Friends of the Hebrew University, the directors of ZCAI will provide recommendation for the allocation of funds research in academic disciplines, at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and in Australian universities.
