take ownership.
A Broader Agenda
The ongoing conflict affects everything we care about in Israel.
The country cannot achieve its potential without it being resolved.
Darkenu sees the potential inherent in Israel, in the Israeli people,
and understands what needs to change in order for us to get there.

list for the next semester. The course is led by author Shaul
Arieli, who is one of Israels leading experts on the demarcation
of the future Israeli-Palestinian border, and the huge success
of the first course in Tel-Aviv led us to open two more courses
in Haifa and Beer- Sheva. The course helps train hundreds of
activists who have now acquired in-depth training about the
conflict, and have a far broader understanding of the agenda
they are helping us promote, making them genuine leaders on
this issue within their communities.
DARKENU YOUTH
Darkenu Youth is a group of active young people of high school
age, right before their induction to the army, who see our
movement as being their home for civil-political activity. Despite
their young age, these teens go around the country, recruiting
and talking to as many people as possible. They are committed,
enthusiastic, optimistic, and willing to work hard in order to
change Israel for the better and create a two-state reality.
