On Monday, May 26th, the Israel Democracy Institute, in cooperation with Ort Israel (colleges and schools for advanced technologies and sciences), will hold a conference titled "Democracy and Civic Education for All".
The purpose of the conference is to discuss the promotion of civic and democratic education in the Israeli education system. These can be achieved by exposing students to Israeli society's core issues and dilemmas and deepening their understanding of them, and through the endorsement of social and civil activism.
Taking part in the conference will be principals, teachers, and the Israel Democracy Institute's educational staff.
