NIF Brings Israeli “Shared Society” to 13 Cities

31 March 2016

The recent Pew Research Survey demonstrates a startling gap between Jewish and Palestinian citizens of Israel. From the prospects for peace to the nature of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state, the survey demonstrated significant gaps in how Israel’s majority and most significant minority view the most important issues affecting their personal lives and how they experience their own society.

But there are thousands of Israelis who are working to change this reality and bring Jews and Palestinians together to build a truly shared society. The New Israel Fund, the leading organization advancing democracy and equality in Israel, is sponsoring a series of programs in spring 2016 featuring Israeli and American experts on shared society from a variety of perspectives. Because as in-depth as the Pew survey is, it doesn’t tell us why Israeli society has become so fractured – and what can be done to fix it.
