But for us at KKL-JNF the Negev is opening ceremony of the annual always a priority and making Ben-Gurion's vision a Arava Agricultural Exhibition in reality is an integral part of our work. the Negev, February 2009. Developing the Negev is a dynamic process. Over the years concepts have changed – from Ben-Gurion's view of “wrestling fertility from the wasteland” to our integrated vision of a Negev that preserves Israel’s open spaces, provides a refuge from crowded central Israel, and combines many different cultures and lifestyles – in short – the Israel of tomorrow! Making our vision a reality is challenging and cannot be rushed. The Negev, with its unique qualities, has to be developed with care, love and a feel for the future. If we are to ensure that the Negev will still be here for our children and progress from being Israel's backyard to becoming its showcase, we cannot give up. Come join us on a tour through the Negev of tomorrow – a tomorrow coming ever closer with your help and support. 4 5 Our Vision – Moving Forward withh the Negev into the TheThe NNegev Negev is is a amajor major ch challenge for us at KKL-JNF: We Join us and: dod notno see barren expanses of desert, we see t Support R&D stations, whose research opportunities.opppoo facilitates agriculture in the arid conditions of the Future! t OpportunitiesO for new communities and new Negev and the Arava. ececonomicco enterprises. t Support the development of new water t OpportunitiesOpp for providing the children of the treatment facilities that bring life to inhabitants of NNeNegevgevg v withw a good education and developing sources the region. off inincome.e t Support land reclamation for housing and agriculture in new and existing Negev In thisthihis regregion,giionn, withwithh itsits harshhaarrshh t Opportunitiespor ies forf studying the unique Negev communities. climclimate,te,, 4460 farms produceuc 60% eecosystem and developing it sustainably. ofo Israel’ssraraaeel fresh vegetables.es.

KKL-JNF sees the settlement of the land, particularly in those regions of the country that are distant from the central region, as one of the cornerstones of the Zionist vision.

We plant new forests and manage existing ones, we tend native woodland and restore ancient orchards, and we combat desertification and improve the carbon balance in the environment. Once, we believed in “greening” the Negev – today, we are world renowned experts in savannization, or dry land afforestation – how to create a fertile desert while at the same time preserving the unique desert ecosystem. We plant single trees or clusters of trees in areas where climatic conditions do not permit woodlands or shrubs to grow without substantial human intervention. Their growth relies on advanced water harvesting techniques that capture runoff rainwater in ridges, depressions, terraces and limans (tree clusters planted in micro-catchments).

  • Emergency in Israel
    Emergency in Israel Emergency Update on Jewish Agency Programming May 16, 2021 The recent violent events that have erupted across the country have left us all surprised and stunned: clashes with Palestinians in Jerusalem and on the Temple Mount; the deteriorating security tensions and the massive barrage of missiles from Gaza on southern and central Israel; and the outbreak of unprecedented violence, destruction, and lynching in mixed cities and Arab communities. To say that the situation is particularly challenging is an understatement. We must all deal with the consequences of the current tensions. Many of us are protecting family, coworkers, or people under our charge while missiles fall on our heads night and day, forcing us to seek shelter. We have all witnessed the unbearable sights of rioting, beating, and arson by Arab and Jewish extremists in Lod, Ramla, Acre, Kfar Qassem, Bat Yam, Holon, and other places. As an organization that has experienced hard times of war and destruction, as well as periods of prosperity and peace, it is our duty to rise up and make a clear statement: we will support and assist populations hit by missile fire as we did in the past, after the Second Lebanon War and after Operations Cast Lead and Protective Edge. Together with our partners, we will mobilize to heal and support the communities and populations affected by the fighting. Our Fund for Victims of Terror is already providing assistance to bereaved families. When the situation allows it, we will provide more extensive assistance to localities and communities that have suffered damage and casualties.

  • Global Connections Israel, Greater Metrowest, and the World
    ופרצת U’faratzta Global Connections Israel, Greater MetroWest, and the World Introduction After much consideration, we would like to present a draft plan to restructure the Israel Center of Greater MetroWest. This plan was developed based on feedback from our community members, and a feeling that, in a changing world, we need to be proactive, creative, and innovative. There are four goals for this restructure: To streamline the Israel Center committees and subcommittees, and foster collaboration between related activities To create a mentoring mechanism that will allow us to develop new emerging activists, establishing a leadership development pipeline. To provide a smooth and rational transition into the new allocations system emerging from the Federation strategic plan To create a fresh, exciting, and clear way to tell our story based on Jewish sources 1 The Story of Our People and Our Community Jacob, our forefather, in his dream, sees angels ascending and descending the stairway, the bottom resting on the earth and the top reaching heaven. In the midst of the dream, God tells him that his descendants will be like the dust of the earth, spreading out over the north, south, east, and west. "ופרצת ימה וקדמה, צפונה ונגבה“ “U’faratza yama v’kedma, tsafona v’negba” (Genesis 28:14) There, in Biblical Bethel, where Jacob’s name is changed to Israel, and where our nation is formalized, we are blessed with the promise to multiply, break through, and scatter. The promise does not draw borders or impose geographic limits; it only directs the people to the four corners of the Earth.

  • PM Netanyahu and Quartet Rep Blair Announce Economic Steps to Assist
    Arabs, Jews to travel to Poland together Special delegation of Jewish, Arab, Druze, Bedouin and Christian students to visit concentration camps, learn about 'the other.' 'We're leaving as a united group of friends,' one student says Tomer Velmer A unique group consisting of 220 Jewish, Arab, Druze, Bedouin and Christians teenagers is expected to visit Nazi concentration camps in Poland later this month. The participants are all students at Amal high schools across Israel. The trip will be held under the banner, "We are all part of same human fabric." Amal Group Director Shimon Cohen wrote a letter to the students, asking them to bring with them on their journey not just food and clothing but also patience, openness and attentiveness. The group decided to allow the students to experience both the suffering the Jewish people have gone through and the pain caused to other nations and religions in an attempt to acknowledge "the other". Preparing for the journey (Photo: Sami Kara) Many Amal schools are taking part in the special mission, including those in Shefaram, Rahat, Dimona, Hadera, Ofakim, and Kiryat Malakhi. Each student will pay roughly NIS 5,000 ($1,360) for the trip, part of which will be subsidized by Amal and the Education Ministry. Throughout their visit, the students will be divided into integrated groups consisting of Arab, Hebrew and English speakers. One big united group In preparation for their trip the students participated in a series of meetings aimed at connecting the different worlds they all come from. "The first few meetings were awkward for them due to cultural differences, and the fact that not all of them speak Hebrew," the project manager said.

Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.
