As Jews, we carry a deep sense of responsibility for the ongoing work of Tikkun Olam, 鈥渞epairing the world.鈥� But the Hebrew root of tikkun, usually translated 鈥渢o repair鈥� or 鈥渢o fix,鈥� can also mean 鈥渢o braid.鈥� What if we started to think of Tikkun Olam not as 鈥渇ixing鈥� but as 鈥渂raiding鈥� the world together? What if the tikkun the world needs is a return to the deep and abiding awareness that we are all interconnected? This year, we remember that we always have the capacity to choose how we care for ourselves and each other, which is why we will honor four award recipients who are braiding together a world of beauty, connection, courage, and hope.
