Date & Time Content

Guest Lecture

 

Adi Altschuler

From Dream to Changing Reality - The Path to Meaningful Action

 

Adi Altschuler, the woman behind the establishment of the largest social ventures in Israel, tells her personal story.

 

Adi is a social entrepreneur and groundbreaking leader. When she was 16 years old she began establishing social ventures that would change Israeli society. She founded the youth movement "Krembo Wings" for youth with and without special needs, the "Memory in the Living Room" project - a new tradition that facilitates Holocaust remembrance, and inclusive schools where students with and without special needs learn together, without separation, based on the understanding that human diversity is an asset and not a burden.

 

This is an inspiring lecture about Adi Altschuler's personal and professional story, introducing the ideas, challenges and goals along the way.

 

In this session Adi reveals the stations throughout her life, what led her to establish "Krembo Wings," and "Memory in the Living Room," what stands behind "Inclu - inclusive schools and kindergartens" in Israel.

 

In her lecture, Adi explains how she took a dream and turned it into reality -- and how you can do the same.
