The association works to advance education, culture, and social welfare in the Jordan Valley, the Kinneret Valley, and the Southern Golan Heights. It is committed to strengthening community resilience, reducing opportunity gaps, and developing human capital as the foundation for long-term economic growth in Northeast Israel. The association operates with a practical approach, investing systematically in human capital from school-age youth through CEOs, across the full pipeline that includes students, researchers, entrepreneurs, and startup founders. Regional economic growth is driven by this human capital development, delivered through education programs, professional training, and acceleration programs that enable residents to gain relevant skills, integrate into knowledge-intensive employment, and lead new initiatives. In parallel, the association creates opportunities by attracting companies and business partners to the region, increasing demand for high-quality talent and building a development pathway that supports sustained activity in the Hi-Tech Park. At the core of the educational activity is the KECO program, which promotes environmental tech entrepreneurship education for youth. The program develops entrepreneurial thinking and data-driven problem solving, connects students to real challenges in climate, water, energy, and waste, and builds future-ready skills such as teamwork, prototyping, solution pitching, and understanding environmental and social impact. KECO creates exposure and guidance pathways that bring young people closer to opportunities in science and technology, strengthen personal agency, and build a regional pipeline of future leaders and changemakers. In the economic development sphere, the association advances the Hi-Tech and Innovation Park as a regional growth engine that expands the supply of knowledge-intensive jobs in the Jordan Valley and surrounding areas. The park works to attract companies, startups, and R&D activity, create quality employment for local residents, and retain local talent in the north of Israel. This effort strengthens the local economic base, creates new anchors for regional growth, and expands the ripple effect to businesses, suppliers, and communities.
