AN EXPLORATION OF GENDER EQUITY IN ISRAEL

Please note: NCJW Sacramento has UPDATED the event time to 2:00PM EST

NCJW Sacramento Speaker Series invites all NCJW Sections to join them via Zoom December 16, 2020, 2:00 pm EST

NCJW’s Connecting for Impact Fellowship, a prestigious leadership program for top CEOs and Executives was initiated by NCJW Israel, in addition to our well-established Israel Granting Program. Join us to learn more about both in An Exploration of Gender Equity in Israel.

Shifting attitudes and enabling social change is the goal of Ruah Nashit -The Woman’s Spirit and “ltach-Maaki” Women Lawyers for Social Justice. Women’s lack of power isn’t just gender inequity: it puts children at risk, leaves women vulnerable to domestic violence and human trafficking and traps them in a cycle of financial instability.

These two organizations in Israel are working to empower women to achieve economic self- sufficiency and equal participation in political policy decision making. Join us to learn from advocates Tamar Schwartz and Netta Loevy the progress their organizations are advancing to grow the feminist impact in Israel. Tamar Schwartz is a CFI fellow from the first cohort.  Itach-Maaki received support from NCJW’s Israel granting program.

For RSVP information, to sign up and to learn more about Tamar Schwartz, Netta Loevy, and moderator, Liron Peleg Hadomi, NCJW’s Israel Representative, visit https://ncjwsac.org/events/ncjw-sacramento-speaker-series-presents-ncjws-projects-in-israel/
