New Initiatives for Democracy
Stepping up the Fight for Democracy in Israel:
NIF is committed to a vision of Israel that is democratic and egalitarian. And we are ready to fight for it. New Initiatives for Democracy (NIFD) is our concerted campaign to equip Israel’s pro-democracy and progressive forces with the tools to fight Israel’s regressive right—and win.
We are building an interconnected cadre of progressive leadership representing widely diverse constituencies in Israeli society. We are holding the media accountable to ensure it calls out the scourge of disinformation. We are using cutting-edge tools to empower social justice movements and activists. We are reframing foreign policy to provide a new playbook for Israeli progressives. And we are creating new partnerships that expand the constituency for positive social change.
Building the Future of the Peace Camp
For NIF and the Berl Katznelson Institute, now is the time to propose big, bold ways to shore up Israel’s democratic infrastructure.
