Sami Jinich —
The Center for a Shared Society aims to build an inclusive, socially cohesive society in Israel by engaging divided communities in collective action towards the advancement of a sustainable, thriving Israeli democracy based on mutual responsibility, civic equality and a shared vision of the future.
The Center builds mutually beneficial cooperation between pairs of neighboring Jewish and Arab towns. Municipal leadership and citizens work across the divide to facilitate joint initiatives responding to common needs, goals and interests.
The Givat Haviva Education Department, part of the Jewish-Arab Center for Peace at Givat Haviva, organizes educational activities that promote equality, mutual recognition, partnership and other elements necessary for the development of a shared society.
