Event details

With the events in Israel and Gaza over the last six weeks, we have organised for four of our Israeli partners to join us via video to discuss the conflict, as well as the human rights lessons we can learn, and how its impact will be felt on Israeli society.

Event details

Hagai El-Ad, an Israeli human rights activist, is the executive director of B'Tselem בצלם بتسيلم, the Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories. He recently ended a six-year term as director of the Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI), which included a visit to Australia for NIF in 2012.

Avigail Kormes is NIF's Grants Officer for the Civil and Human Rights pool.

Avi Dabush is SHATIL’s Director of Programming. A resident of southern Israel, Avi’s portfolio includes work on shared society and racism, two issues which have taken on particular importance in light of the kidnapping and murders of three Israeli and one Palestinian teenagers in July, and the violence and tension between Jews and Arabs that came after.
