LJY-Netzer (formally ULPSNYC-Netzer) operates as a branch of Netzer Olami, the International Progressive Zionist Youth movement and as a youth facility for LJY-Netzer.

Its ideology is based upon three concepts of Liberal Judaism (a theology from thinkers such as Lily Montagu, Claud Montefoire and Israel Mattuk during the 19th Century), Progressive Zionism and Tikkun Olam (repair of the world).

LJY-Netzer has been key in bringing the UK's Liberal Jewish movement into reassesing its stance on the concept of Am Yisrael and the State of Israel.

Today LJY-Netzer opperates events throughout the year including Machaneh Kadimah (its well established Summer camp, Machaneh Aviv, Veidah, Shabbatonot, Israel Tours (Bog Tour 18+ and Israel Tour - 16), Shnat Netzer - gap year in Israel. All these events are publicised with its tagline LJY-Netzer | Live it | Learn it | Love it - this being key elements of what makes us succesful as a movement.
