OUR THESIS
We are at a watershed moment
We have a rare opportunity to rebuild a stronger, more resilient nation, while establishing a model for post-crisis recovery globally
Problems
Solutions
01
Going back to pre Oct 7th is no longer good enough
Rebuild better
Address systemic root causes, rather than simply restoring the pre-October 7th reality with its endemic flaws
02
No amount of philanthropic capital will be sufficient to fund all recovery needs
Magnify the impact of philanthropic capital
Unlock additional resources from the private sector (investments) and government support (grants, programs and benefits),
03
There is no "blueprint" for effective, innovative post-disaster recovery
Turn Israel’s recovery into a global model
Develop and export innovative post- disaster solutions
PEOPLE
Drawing on global experience and a local network
Leadership & key supporters
