Welcome to Makom:
Israel Education Laboratory
Forging deep, mature and lasting connections between Israel and the Jewish people
Makom is an initiative of the Jewish Agency that addresses the complex landscape of Israel education by creating spaces for meaningful dialogue and deep exploration.
Transformative Learning: Designing programs that enable wrestling with nuanced perspectives while fostering connection and collaboration
Empowering Dialogue: Providing tools for critical and compassionate engagement with Israel's multifaceted narrative
Professional Development: Equipping diverse professionals with sophisticated content and methodologies for exploring Jewish life and Israeli complexity
We've partnered with more than 30 organizations across the Jewish and Israeli landscape
"Through participating in a program with Makom, I learned different protocols for engaging in dialogue across differences. I was challenged at times by the thoughts and perspectives that were being discussed, but was able to appreciate the opportunity to engage with the people who held these differing views."
