Alongside the increased public awareness of the importance of early detection tests, significant advances have been made in treatment and rehabilitation, and many patients have gained benefit from the ICA's wide variety of services, which make it easier to cope with the disease, the post-disease trajectory and the return to a normal routine. Despite the numerous challenges confronting us, as citizens and as a country, we must keep in mind that there has been no lull in the war on cancer. There are over Prof. Aaron Ciechanover 200,000 cancer patients and survivors living in Israel, and we continue to act on Nobel Prize Laureate their and their families' behalf without a respite, working to promote public health. Honorary President, Israel Cancer Association In keeping with tradition, the ICA has continued to conduct support and welfare activities for patients, survivors and their families, including 'Survivors towards a Healthy Life'® workshops, which accompany cancer survivors as they return to a healthy life, 'Steps to a Healthy Life'® workshops, which provide guidance to cancer patients on how to incorporate physical activity in their daily routine during treatments and thereafter, a Family Vacation and fun-filled activity days for childhood cancer patients, make-up and beauty workshops in oncology departments and ICA support centers, dozens of support groups, and more. Prof. Eliezer Robinson Chairman, Israel Cancer Association The ICA has supported the set up and upgrade of treatment centers throughout Israel, and assisted in the purchase of innovative state-of-the-art medical equipment. The fight against cancer diseases does not stop with enhancing detection methods and treatment modalities for patients and providing them with support. The ICA continues to promote research and increase public awareness of the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle from a young age, in order to reduce the risk of developing the disease. ICA's public information efforts to instill healthy lifestyle habits among the general Mr. Leon Recanati Vice Chairman, population have produced results: the smoking rate in Israel is on the decline; Israel Israel Cancer Association dropped from 3rd to 13th place among men and 20th place among women in worldwide melanoma incidence statistics (compared to 20 countries that lead in incidence), and thanks to early detection and optimal treatment, the State of Israel ranks 6th among 85 countries across the globe in survival rates. 4 ICA's numerous activities and impressive achievements for public health and reducing cancer morbidity and mortality, have gained international recognition on numerous occasions. The prestigious American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Award for Distinguished Public Service and Global Impact in Cancer Advocacy was recently presented to Miri Ziv for her lifelong contribution to the public's health and wellbeing, as well as her global achievements in furthering the fight against cancer. The AACR, an association representing physicians and investigators in 90 countries around the world, presented this award to Miri at the Association's Annual Meeting. Upon her receipt of the prize, the Association noted Miri's extraordinary activity, and her lifelong achievements, as well as those of the ICA, under her stewardship, in accelerating progress in the conquest of cancer both on a national and international scale, in implementing national early detection programs, and in gaining additional accomplishments by virtue of her membership in leading international forums and organizations.

  • Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As Of, January 27, 2015) Elections • in Israel, Elections for the Knesset A
    Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As of, January 27, 2015) Elections In Israel, elections for the Knesset are held at least every four years. As is frequently the case, the outgoing government coalition collapsed due to disagreements between the parties. As a result, the Knesset fell significantly short of seeing out its full four year term. Knesset elections in Israel will now be held on March 17, 2015, slightly over two years since the last time that this occurred. The Basics of the Israeli Electoral System All Israeli citizens above the age of 18 and currently in the country are eligible to vote. Voters simply select one political party. Votes are tallied and each party is then basically awarded the same percentage of Knesset seats as the percentage of votes that it received. So a party that wins 10% of total votes, receives 10% of the seats in the Knesset (In other words, they would win 12, out of a total of 120 seats). To discourage small parties, the law was recently amended and now the votes of any party that does not win at least 3.25% of the total (probably around 130,000 votes) are completely discarded and that party will not receive any seats. (Until recently, the “electoral threshold,” as it is known, was only 2%). For the upcoming elections, by January 29, each party must submit a numbered list of its candidates, which cannot later be altered. So a party that receives 10 seats will send to the Knesset the top 10 people listed on its pre-submitted list.
