Israel-Morocco forum

Real Peace is Made by
Real People

The Leaders of Tomorrow Israel-Morocco Forum spans six months and is divided into two parts: weekly Zoom meetings and delegations to both Morocco and Israel. The program involves 20 young Israelis and 20 young Moroccans who have been carefully selected from hundreds of candidates.

All members of the program come from backgrounds of either social or business entrepreneurship, worlds of advocacy and activism. 

The purpose of the program is to connect the young leaders and together develop ideas and projects related to the connections between the two nations.

This historic program and the participants’ projects are conducted in collaboration with Mimouna – a Moroccan association that works to promote Moroccoan Jewish heritage and Muslim- Jewish dialogue.
