Why Ethiopian-Israeli young women and men?

There are around 50,000 young people between the ages of 15-30 in the Ethiopian-Israeli community. Since the early stages of immigration, Ethiopian-Israelis have constituted a driving force for change and integration. Yet, they fight daily for their voices to be heard and for their right to be considered equal among equals within their community and Israeli society.

The status of these young people will have a decisive influence on the future success of their communities. Activities and programs that educate and empower these young people serve as a gateway to social mobility for the entire Ethiopian-Israeli community.
