About Rothschild Foundation
The Edmond de Rothschild Partnerships, established in 2016 by the Edmond de Rothschild Foundation as its non-profit operative branch, acts to reduce disparities in Israeli society and ensure equal opportunities for youngsters from Israel's socio-geographic periphery. It was established to create one home for EdR Partnerships young leadership programs.
We believe that investing in young leadership, with an emphasis on fair representation of youngsters from the socio-geographic periphery, will have a tremendous impact on changing Israel's social climate, and result in a equitable, balanced Israeli society, in which the common good is shared more fairly.
Our passionately supported values underpin all of our activities and include: equal opportunities, continual learning, innovation, responsibility, cooperation and partnership. We instil all of the participants in our programs with these values.
All of our efforts are directed toward the personal and professional development of our participants. The Partnerships' programs integrate knowledge, awareness and social activism with personal, academic and employment development. In order to utilize these tools and attributes to the fullest, and translate them to practical work in the field, EdR Partnerships' programs and activities operate throughout Israel. Each group is heterogenous, with participants from the broad range of the diverse communities in Israeli society. Thus, our programs reflect our values: promoting equality in resource distribution and opportunities.
