Our “Under the Same Green Roof” program, supported by USAID, creates concrete avenues for people-to-people cooperation, using the environment as the medium and Green Roofs as the platform. We promote a culture of peace and mutual respect among Jewish and Arab Israelis between Kfar Saba and Kfar Qasem municipalities in the Sharon Regional Cluster, to stimulate joint environmental and economic cooperation.
We invite Arabs and Jews: designers, engineers, entrepreneurs, students and early-stage startups to join. It's free, but limited to 50 participants!
Together with experts, mentors and investors, we'll help individuals and teams learn, work and pitch their Urban Agriculture ideas/projects.
Up to 4 winners will be selected at this hackathon to win a $10,000 prize and to run a pilot in Kfar Saba
and/or Kfar Qasem - are you ready?
It's soon time to gather in Kfar Qasem,
and make it happen!
