Herschel Gluck OBE is a British rabbi chairman of the Arab-Jewish Forum and is chairman and founder of the Muslim-Jewish Forum. Established in 2000, the Muslim-Jewish Forum was the first of its type in the world. It deals with a broad range of issues which are of concern to both communities and also serves a role in preventing and defusing tensions.
Gluck’s role as a mediator is not confined to the domestic arena. He has also been heavily involved for some time with the Next Century Foundation, through which he has played a significant role as a mediator in conflicts as diverse as the Sudan and Former Yugoslavia.[1]
Gluck was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2013 New Year Honours for services to interfaith understanding.[2]
After Joe Lobenstein died on 28 June 2015, aged 88,[3] Gluck was appointed as the new[4] President of the Stamford Hill Shomrim, a Jewish volunteer Neighbourhood Patrol Group.[5]
