Summary Tens of thousands of Palestinian Arab Bedouin, the indigenous inhabitants of the Negev region, live in informal shanty towns, or “unrecognized villages,” in the south of Israel. Discriminatory land and planning policies have made it virtually impossible for Bedouin to build legally where they live, and also exclude them from the state’s development plans for the region. The state implements forced evictions, home demolitions, and other punitive measures disproportionately against Bedouin as compared with actions taken regarding structures owned by Jewish Israelis that do not conform to planning law. In this report, Human Rights Watch examines these discriminatory policies and their impact on the life of Bedouin in the Negev. It calls on Israel to place an immediate moratorium on home demolitions in the Negev and establish an independent mechanism to investigate the discriminatory and often unlawful way in which land allocation, planning, and home demolitions are implemented. The state controls 93 percent of the land in Israel, and a government agency, the Israel Land Administration (ILA), manages and allocates this land. The ILA lacks any mandate to disburse land in a fair and just fashion, and members of the Jewish National Fund, which has an explicit mandate to develop land for Jewish use only, constitute almost half of the ILA’s governing council, occupying all the seats not held by Israeli government ministries. While the Bedouin were traditionally a nomadic people, roaming the Negev in search of grazing land for their livestock, they had already adopted a largely sedentary way of life prior to 1948, settling in distinct villages with a well defined traditional system of communal and individual land ownership. Today they comprise 25 percent of the population of the northern Negev, but have jurisdiction over less than 2 percent of the land there. Planning in Israel is highly centralized, and state planners fail to include the Palestinian Arab population, especially the Bedouin, in decision making and in developing the master plans that govern zoning, construction, and development in Israel. Even though Bedouin villages in the Negev pre-date Israel’s first master plan 1 Human Rights Watch March 2008 in the late 1960s, state planners did not include these villages in their original plans, rendering these longstanding communities “unrecognized.”

  • Making the Desert Bloom Facilitators Guide
    Jewish National Fund Tu BiShvat in the Schools, 2020/5780 Making the Desert Bloom Facilitators Guide Intro to Jewish Long before there was Earth Day there was Tu BiShvat, the Jewish New Year for Trees, which falls on the 15th day of the Hebrew month of Shvat. Tu BiShvat marks the time National Fund when trees emerge from their winter sleep and begin a new cycle. It is a celebration and Tu BiShvat of spring’s rebirth and renewal, an appreciation of the interconnectedness of man and nature, and the marker by which a tree’s age is determined. Tu BiShvat has its roots in the Bible: “On the third day of creation, God created ‘seed- bearing plants, fruit trees after their kind, and trees of every kind bearing fruit with the seed in it’” (Genesis 1:11). God then put Adam in the garden to “till it and tend it” (2:15), making humans stewards of the earth. Tu BiShvat was the date used by farmers to calculate the year’s crop yield and determine the tithe that the Bible requires. It also marks the beginning and end of the first four years of a tree’s growth, during which it is forbidden to eat its fruit. As the Jewish Arbor Day, Tu BiShvat embodies the strong dedication to ecology, environmentalism, and conservation that Jewish National Fund has championed since its inception in 1901. Since the time of the Kabbalah, Sephardi Jews, originally from Spain, held a special Tu BiShvat Seder at which they ate 30 kinds of fruit from Israel: 10 whose outsides and insides were both eaten (like grapes), 10 whose outsides were eaten but whose insides were thrown away (like carobs), and 10 whose insides were eaten but whose outsides were thrown away (like almonds).

  • Mapping Hebrew Education in Public Schools
    MAPPING HEBREW EDUCATION IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS: A Resource for Hebrew Educators WORKING PAPER SHARON AVNI AVITAL KARPMAN SEPTEMBER 2019 SEPTEMBER At the George Washington University’s Graduate School of Education and Human Development (GSEHD), we advance knowledge through meaningful research that improves the policy and practice of education. Together, more than 1,600 faculty, researchers and graduate students make up the GSEHD community of scholars. Founded in 1909, GSEHD continues to take on the challenges of the 21st century because we believe that education is the single greatest contributor to economic success and social progress. The Consortium for Applied Studies in Jewish Education (CASJE) is an evolving community of researchers, practitioners, and philanthropic leaders dedicated to improving the quality of knowledge that can be used to guide the work of Jewish education. The Consortium supports research shaped by the wisdom of practice, practice guided by research, and philanthropy informed by a sound base of evidence. AUTHORS Sharon Avni, PhD, CUNY (BMCC) Sharon Avni is Associate Professor of Language and Literacy in the Department of Academic Literacy and Linguistics at CUNY-BMCC. Avital Karpman, PhD, University of Maryland, College Park Avital Karpman is Associate Clinical Professor of Hebrew and Director of the Hebrew Program at the School of Languages, Literatures and Cultures at the University of Maryland, College Park. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We wish to acknowledge the substantial help and encouragement we received from Dr. Peter Friedman z”l of the Jewish United Fund of Metropolitan Chicago, who passed away before this report was completed. SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND In the past decade, there has been a resurgence in the study of Hebrew in traditional and charter public schools.1 However, the types of schools teaching Hebrew and the demographics of students studying Hebrew do not resemble those of earlier iterations of public school Hebrew programs that trace back to the early 20th century.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 Tamar Center Negev Believes That the Future of the Negev Depends on the Success of Bedouin Children
    ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 Tamar Center Negev believes that the future of the Negev depends on the success of Bedouin children. Tamar Center Negev encourages personal responsibility and initiative, cultivating a culture of excellence and creating opportunities. These values are the key to a better, shared future for Bedouin society, the Negev and the country. FOUNDING PRINCIPLES CULTIVATING PARTNERSHIPS PERSONAL CREATING EXCELLENCE INITIATIVE & OPPORTUNITIES RESPONSIBILITY Tamar Center Negev is a new, rapidly growing grassroots organization igniting change and nurturing hope through education for Bedouin Society in the Negev. Tamar builds a culture of excellence, empowerment and access in the Bedouin community. Tamar Center Negev was founded in 2015 by Ibrahim Nsasra, a 36-year-old Bedouin businessman, who brought together a group of Bedouin educators and community leaders to build the organization. Two-thirds of Bedouin society is under the age of 18. The youth are the worst performing students in Israeli society by all standards, with less than 2% achieving high-level high school matriculation in Mathematics and 36% dropping out by the end of 12th grade. Low matriculation rates are a key barrier to Bedouin student’s entry into competitive University faculties, limiting their ability to integrate into higher education and quality employment. Improved access to high achievement in STEM will enable Bedouin youth to break the cycle of poverty and become local role models. Tamar is not a substitute for state institutions, but rather a framework for improving the population’s access to state apparatuses. The educational initiatives at Tamar are chosen very strictly; after foundational research that enables us to design programs that will reach the roots of the challenges on a regional level and influence beyond the boundaries of the initiative.
