Informal education

Back to all content worlds

Informal education is a significant space for personal and social development, complementing the formal education system. We develop and operate a variety of educational programs in community centers that provide children and youth with tools and values for life, while developing social, emotional and cognitive skills. These activities include leadership groups, youth mentors, enrichment classes, volunteering and social engagement.

The activities promote values of personal responsibility, tolerance, cooperation, and mutual respect, while creating meaningful learning experiences and opportunities for self-expression. Participation in these programs strengthens the sense of community and develops the social awareness and civic engagement of the younger generation.

Among the programs operating in this field are: the Karb Program for Involvement in Education, Connected, Circle for Every Child, Makrok, Magen HaKhiyala, National Ninja League, Young Leadership Program (Madatzim), Story on the Road, Mahlab - Community Education and Learning Centers, Keys, and more.
