Five months after October 7th, the New Israel Fund is investing even deeper into civil society initiatives that can lead Israel out of the current war, secure democracy, and provide a political horizon for both Israelis and Palestinians alike.

Our funded partner Mitvim and NIF grantee the Berl Katznelson Foundation are experts in Israeli security and foreign policy – they have put forward a plan they’re calling The Israeli Initiative that proposes a way forward. It was printed as an insert in the Haaretz newspaper in early March and has already made waves in Israel.

Mitvim–The Israeli Institute for Regional Foreign Policies is a foreign policy think tank established in 2011 with the mission to promote a progressive paradigm shift in Israel’s foreign policy. We are proud that Mitvim is one of our ten initial currently funded partners this year.

We are also proud to bring Mitvim’s CEO Dr. Gil Murciano on a cross-Canada tour from April 14-17 to educate us about pragmatic ways out of the current tragedy and into a better future:
