Programs
Derech Eretz works along four strategic tracks — civic education, local self-governance, resources, and legislation. Each track advances a clear set of goals.
  • We solve real municipal problems through direct support for the movement's organizers on the ground. Residents bring the demand; we turn it into concrete results, block by block.

  • Technical infrastructure and legal support for local projects in cities across Israel. We advise organizers, supply expert input, and award small grants that directly fund grassroots municipal initiatives.

  • We are drafting and advancing the Neighborhood Councils Legalization Act through the Knesset. In parallel, we are running pilot neighborhood councils in cities across Israel to test the model in practice and convening expert dialogue on modernizing the legal framework for civic participation.

  • We train the next generation of change-makers. Organizers learn the practical tools that make change happen — from effective fundraising and project management to current best practices in civic engagement.
