What kinds of organisations are ineligible for NIF grants or support?

A:

It is NIF’s policy not to support or provide funding to organisations that:

  • participate in partisan political activity;
  • promote anti-democratic values;
  • support the continued occupation of disputed territory acquired in 1967 and subsequent settlement activity;
  • violate the human rights of any group or individual, advocate human rights selectively for one group over another or reject the principle of the universality of human rights;
  • condone or promote violence or use violent tactics;
  • employ racist or derogatory language or designations about any group based on religion, race, ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation;
  • work to deny:
    • the right of the Jewish people to sovereign self-determination within Israel, or
    • the rights of Arab Israelis or other non-Jewish citizens to full equality within a democratic Israel; or
  • engage in activities at odds with the positions, principles, or vision of NIF.
