The Hannaton Educational Center is a formal learning community and leadership institute situated on Kibbutz Hannaton in the Lower Galilee, Israel. Our mission is to create an Israeli society that welcomes diversity both political and religious and embraces people regardless of beliefs, background, gender or sexual preference. We fulfill this mission through our four main educational leadership programs focused on informing, engaging, and nourishing tomorrow’s Jewish leaders: the Hannaton Mechina, the Mitzpeh BaGalil GAP year program, the Midrasha, and the Institute for Jewish Leadership for Rabbis and Lay Leaders. Affiliated with the Masorti Movement, the Center is a place where experiential, creative, and formal education intersect in life-changing ways.
