About Me

Rabbi Zalman Kastel AM
I am active in educational efforts to counter prejudice, particularly when linked to religion. My role is the Dean and Founder of Together For Humanity Foundation. I am also a Rabbi, teaching Torah to adults on Saturdays, occasionally conducting weddings and funerals and I am involved in other aspects of religious leadership. I was ordained with Semicha from the Lubavitch Yeshiva (770) in New York, studied Torah in London, Brooklyn and Sydney. I completed a graduate Diploma in Education at the University of New England. I've been blogging since 2011.
