The government approved a NIS 200 million plan to bolster Jewish identity among diaspora youth, led by Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli in partnership with the Jewish Federations of North America. The initiative is a direct continuation of the earlier Project Aleph Bet.
The government approved the new NIS 200 million plan on Sunday afternoon, a package aimed at strengthening Jewish identity among diaspora youth through educational and engagement initiatives. As The Zioneer reported earlier (Sun 15:05, cabinet approval of the NIS 200M national plan), the proposal is structured as a direct follow-on to the earlier Project Aleph Bet, which was also launched by Minister Amichai Chikli in partnership with the Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA). The new plan targets barriers to Jewish schooling abroad, including tuition costs, geographic accessibility, and educational quality. No official timeline for implementation was specified in this release.
