Join us in welcoming Ron Gerlitz and Rawnak Natour, the dynamic joint Jewish and Arab co-executive directors of Sikkuy – The Association for the Advancement of Civic Equality.
Sikkuy is a formidable shared Jewish-Arab organisation, dedicated to the advancement of equality for the Arab citizens of Israel who comprise 20% of Israel’s population.
Rawnak and Ron will give us a fascinating insight into the realities and challenges of working for equality and a shared society in Israel and will outline what is being done by organisations like Sikkuy to advance equality for Arab citizens in all fields.
Enriched by their first-hand experience and expert knowledge, this event will give us a deeper knowledge and understanding of the challenges and opportunities and the work being done to build shared society in Israel today.
Free entry but donations towards cost are warmly invited.
