Following the Hamas terror attacks and the subsequent war, ConAct startet to invite people from Israeli youth work and society to shed light on current developments and contexts of meaning from their perspective. The ongoing series of talks revolves around the following questions:

  • How is Israeli society – in its diversity and affectedness – faring after the attacks of October 7, 2023?
  • How should the Hamas attack and the war it triggered be interpreted internationally?
  • What information and contexts of meaning are politically and socially important now?
  • What needs to be done – by Germany, in Germany, in the midst of German civil society?
  • What implications for encounters and exchange become apparent?
