BINA: The Jewish Movement for Social Change (or as they call themselves in Hebrew "The Home of Israeli Judaism") is an extraordinary educational institute in Tel Aviv, with branches around the country and along the Asian routes popular with Israeli trekkers. Many AC kids have studied there on gap years and we have cooperated on programs for years.

We are excited to host Ayala Dekel, Head of BINA's Secular Yeshiva, explore our Jewish tradition of transforming broken pieces into something bold and new. Ayala will guide us in uncovering strength within our sacred texts and timeless traditions. Together, we'll delve into our history and contemporary experiences to discover the wellsprings of personal and communal resilience.

In addition to leading BINA's Secular Yehiva, Ayala Dekel is a dynamic leader, rabbi, and award-winning and bestselling author for children and adults. She has been a powerful presence in Tel Aviv's Hostage Square, leading Kabbalat Shabbat and offering spiritual support to the families of hostages.
