Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

Friends of Givat Haviva, Inc. is a New York not-for-profit fundraising organization devoted to the advancement of Jewish-Arab reconciliation, cultural and religious pluralism, democratic values, and peace in the Middle East.

  • For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Friends of Givat Haviva, Inc. operated the following programs:(i)Children Teaching Children - A unique educational program, offering in-depth two-year activity in grades 8 and 9, in both Jewish and Arab schools. The program focuses on accepting the other, equality, acquaintance, and friendship. (ii)Center for Shared Society - Givat Haviva has developed a comprehensive educational program for Jewish and Arab students that fosters learning and understanding and imparts tools to promote a shared society in Israel. Implemented within and alongside the formal education system, Givat Haviva's programs utilize informal peace education approaches, focusing on experiential education, Jewish-Arab encounters, dialogue, culture, arts, and joint activity. Givat Haviva aims to reach students throughout their educational lifecycle, starting in elementary school and continuing through high school. The programs create opportunities for repeated encounters and personal development among Arab and Jewish young people laying the foundations for a shared, democratic future for Israeli society.(iii)Givat Haviva International School (GHIS) - GHIS is a two-year boarding-school program that aims to promote peace in the Middle East and globally by developing a multicultural and international network of leaders that will work together to create dialogue, understanding, and collaboration between individuals and societies(iv)Through others eyes - Through Others' Eyes (TOE) is a dialogue and community-building project that brings 9 Arab and 9 Jewish teenagers together. The teenagers learn photography skills and learn about each other as they explore questions of identity, nationality, religion, and community. (v)Baraem Hi-Tech Seeds - The Baraem Hi-Tech program at Givat Haviva allows promising Arab high school students in Israel to study computer science and technology and earn credits toward a bachelors degree in computer science while still in high school. This head start, available to the most talented Jewish students through the army, is the foundation for the Start-Up Nation.(vi)Cross-Sector Teachers Exchange - The proposed program is a series of semester-long exchanges of teachers in pairs from Jewish and Arab schools. Schools will be paired based on proximity and parity to facilitate stronger connections between the schools, beyond the individual exchange teachers. The program will run for three years as a pilot with the Ministry before being scaled up and integrated into the educational system. In the first year, the mechanisms for implementation were created and honed on 14 pairs of teachers. In the second year, we plan to expand to 25 pairs.
