NEWLY ANNOUNCED:
IPF ATID’S WOMEN, PEACE & SECURITY CHANNEL (WPS)
In efforts to better align and integrate our community with the Women*, Peace & Security (WPS) agenda, IPF Atid commits to advancing progress within internal structures and programs, in tandem with other Jewish and US-based organizations, and in support of ongoing efforts within Israeli and Palestinian societies.
Dr. Nimrod Novik (Israel Fellow, IPF):
“As an Israeli who was fortunate enough to work with the giants of the founding generation, I worry that the next American Jewish generation will be less supportive of our country than previous generations were when Peres and Rabin called upon them. IPF Atid is the answer to my concern in making sure – that in supporting the two-state solution – the next generation of leaders is fully versed with the issues and actively engaged.”
Nimrod Novik served as an Advisor for almost a decade to Shimon Peres during his tenure as Prime Minister and Vice Premier. During those years, Novik was involved in all related foreign policy matters including peace talks with Arab leaders, negotiations with Moscow over Soviet Jewry, and other national security issues.
DELEGATION TO REGION
