Visitors and Guests
Although we are living in an ever-shrinking world, there is still nothing like exchanging views and listening to people first hand. As a result, the ZFA and other organisations invest in bringing various experts out to Australia to address and interact with the community. These visitors and guests come either individually or as part of a group, and are invited to address the community and the general media on a varied range of topics dealing with Israel, the Peace Process, education - formal and informal, and in school in-servicing in the Hebrew language and Jewish studies. Amongst the guests of recent years, the ZFA has hosted: Salai Meridor (Former Chairman JAFI); Prof. Alan Rosenthal (film-maker); Ehud Ya'ari (Middle East commentator); Sharon Shenhav (women's issues expert); Ehud Olmert (Jerusalem Mayor); Nava Barak (wife of the Prime Minister); Akiva Eldar (Ha'aretz writer); Yehiel Leiter (political campaigner); Moodi Sandberg MK; Limor Livnat MK; Dan Tichon MK; Naomi Chazan MK;A. Lova Eliav (former Presidential candidate); Shira Simchowitz (Pre-school director, Israel's Department of Education); Shimon Harel (Israel's Ministry of Education); Mirik Snir (Israeli author);and others. ^back to top
