AJC New England Hosts Michal Sella

During her June 2025 visit to Boston, Givat Haviva CEO Michal Sella met with dozens of local Jewish community leaders at the American Jewish Committee (AJC) New England office. The evening event was co-sponsored by AJC, JCRC, and ADL.

Following Sella's review of the organization's wide-ranging educational activities and programs, AJC New England Director Rob Leikind thanked her for presenting a hopeful perspective on life in Israel and praised the positive impact of Givat Haviva on Israeli society.  

Participants engaged in an extensive, vibrant conversation with Sella about Givat Haviva's educational initiatives advancing Jewish-Arab relations and shared society in Israel. She emphasized that participation in a range of programs at the Givat Haviva campus have reached levels achieved before October 7, 2023, and with Israel Ministry of Education assistance one program is poised to expand.
