The annual increase in the number of fatalities has been suspended, but governmental crime and violence elimination programs must continue
The Abraham Initiatives bestows the Champions of Shared Society award for the year 2022, celebrating people and organizations whose contribution to Jewish-Arab equality is noteworthy
The Abraham Initiatives has launched a national campaign called "Only Together" in an effort to calm Jewish-Arab tensions in Israel and highlight the importance of building a shared society during these difficult times.
With Jewish & Arab youth in Israel almost exclusively living and studying in separate towns and school systems, Shared Learning is a rare opportunity to study together and build understanding, knowledge and friendship with the so-called "other".
With Arab communities in Israel facing a crisis of crime and violence, Safe Communities works to mediate between Arab community leadership and the institutions tasked with ensuring the safety of all Israeli citizens. Our program focuses on building trust between Arab leadership and the Israeli Police, and on finding solutions to the root causes of this issue.
With the 2018 municipal elections in Israel resulting in Jewish-Arab city council coalitions in every mixed city, we launched our Shared Cities Initiative to ensure the success of these nascent political partnerships and provide a model to the rest of the country.
