Our main

mission

Eretz-Ir is a professional, organizational, and economic platform that supports residents positively influencing the place they live. We connect with residents who want to create change in their environment and help them to organize, acquire professional tools, and meet like-minded partners. We support local activists, communities, and social entrepreneurs who live in the periphery of Israel and strive to make their cities good, positive places to live.

According to our communal outlook, deep long-term social processes in cities require multiple sector partnerships: local, regional, and national. We connect a myriad of partners to our various initiatives and lead interventions that create a uniform language, common goals, and a pooling of resources between all stakeholders.
