This past year brought with it unique challenges – especially the eruption of violence between Jews and Arabs within Israel in May 2020 – which impacted Merchavim's community of Arab teachers in Jewish schools. The conversation opened by this event was also an opportunity for the Merchavim team to provide support and experienced insights to teaching teams throughout Israel on how to constructively deal with conflict.
We invite you to read the full report on Merchavim's educational activities – integrating Arab teachers, Ethiopian-Israeli teachers and teachers with disabilities – in Israel's school system. It includes a very thorough overview of activities, statistics, accomplishments and challenges.
