Floriane Chinsky (born 1974 in Paris, France) is the first female rabbi in Belgium.

In 2005, she was ordained as a rabbi at the Schechter Institute in Jerusalem; the same year she received a Ph.D. in sociology of law, with a thesis studying the social representations[1] of Jewish law in France.[2] She became Belgium's first female rabbi in 2005, at Beth Hillel, Brussels’ Reform congregation.[3]

In 2010, she became the rabbi at the Masorti congregation, Neve Shalom, in Saint-Germain-en-Laye,[4] and in 2013, became a rabbi at the Liberal Jewish Movement of France in Paris.[5][6] She is the third woman to become a rabbi in France.[7]
