Join us as we hear from MGSDII Visiting Professor alumni – leading academics and thought leaders on the ground in Israel.

In recent weeks, many Israelis have taken to the streets to protest proposed judicial reforms. Beyond the law itself, the debate has turned into a referendum on the nature of democracy in Israel and the founding vision of a Jewish democratic state. Our panel, all former MGSDII professors, will share real-time analysis and personal reflections at this critical juncture.

Featuring:

Dr. Tamar Arieli
Professor and Head of the Conflict Management Program at the Tel-Hai College, Israel

Dr. Meir Litvak
Professor in the Department of Middle Eastern History, Tel Aviv University

Dr. Marik Shtern
Researcher at the Jerusalem Institute for Policy Research

Ronit Weiss Berkowitz
Screenwriter and creator of the Netflix hit The Girl From Oslo, Former Chair of Israel’s National Lottery Film Fund (Mifal HaPayis)
