5 Action Points for Israel Education
This week Rabbi David reflects on recent Israel-related events on university campuses and suggests 5 central ideas for educating our youth about Israel in the community. Summary below – watch the video for more! Stay tuned for events and programming that puts this into practice!
- Education should be fact and knowledge oriented.
- Educating for a religious connection to the entire Land of Israel whilst also educating about the possibility of Palestinian sovereignty.
- Education that has an interactive approach that emphasizes role-playing political and cultural roles.
- Education that does not romanticise Israel’s political and cultural leadership and is able to admit to fallibility.
- Education that combines standing up for the State of Israel and calling out behaviour or actions that we feel are problematic
