Green Horizons Leadership Program was born out of true friendship and a love of Israel and established by the friends of Ori Maimon z’l who fell in battle during the Yom Kippur War. The vision which directed them then and continues to lead us today is the education of a young generation devoted and connected to the Land of Israel, its people and society.

We deeply believe the outdoors are the best teacher and that a journey in nature is the most powerful way to build character. Through experiential learning and authentic challenges outdoors, our participants discover inner strengths they never knew they possessed. They develop both personal and group skills and abilities and acquire the values of personal responsibility, leadership, camaraderie and solidarity. The outdoors becomes a dynamic educational space where participants face challenges, develop resilience, and acquire essential skills and life skills to deal with an ever-changing reality.

Alongside the personal development of each participant, we aim to create a wider impact on Israeli society as well as foster a culture of caring and involved citizens, leaders who genuinely love the Land and strive to become a significant factor in shaping the culture in Israel: a culture of responsibility, expertise, and a deepening of the connection between man, the Land and community.
