Histadrut ha-No'ar ha-Owed we-ha-Lomed
The Histadrut ha-No'ar ha-Owed we-ha-Lomed ( Hebrew הסתדרות הנוער העובד והלומד, German The Federation of Working and Studying Youth ), in short: No'al ( Hebrew נוע"ל) is an Israeli youth association. It is a sister movement of the worldwide Jewish youth organization Ha-Bonim Dror , a movement of the Zionut socialist ( Hebrew ציונות סוציאליסטית, Socialist Zionists ).
history
The organization was founded on October 17, 1924 and was affiliated with the Histadrut . Her first name was ha-No'ar ha-Owed ( Hebrew הנוֹעַר העוֹבֵד, dt. The working youth ). In her political line she was influenced by German Social Democrats and the British Fabian Society . In 1959, ha-No'ar ha-Owed joined the ha-Tnua ha-Me'uchedet ( Hebrew התְּנוּעָה המְאוּחֶדֶת, dt. The united movement ) together. The name of the association has since been Histadrut ha-No'ar ha-Owed we-ha-Lomed . After serving in the army, the members were particularly active in the kibbutz movement and emerged as kibbutz founders.
With the decline of the kibbutz movement in the 1990s, the association expanded its sphere of activity. Henceforth the “Bogrim” (“Graduates of the Movement”) also formed small urban communities and were particularly active in training and socially engaged. Today around 1000 Bogrim live in small communities in cities or kibbutzim and mostly work in youth work within Israeli society.
Due to their roots in the Zionist youth movement Dror , which was founded in Poland in 1915 and was active in several European countries in the 1920s and 1930s , No'al and Tnuat Bogrim (German movement of the Bogrim ) are sometimes also referred to as the "Movement of Dror - Israel".
Members
No'al has around 120,000 members. This makes No'al the largest youth association in Israel. In the past decade the number of members has increased significantly, in 1998 it was 80,000. Some of its members became members of the Knesset, prime ministers and state presidents, such as B. Ra'anan Cohen , Ephraim Katzir , Jitzchak Rabin , Shimon Peres or Moshe Jaalon . The movement is also significant insofar as it - which is the exception rather than the rule in Israel - has a comparatively large number of Arab and Druze members , especially in the local groups in Galilee .
International cooperation
The Histadrut ha-No'ar ha-Owed we-ha-Lomed belongs as one of two associations to the umbrella organization International Falcon Movement - Socialist Educational International (International Falcon Movement - Socialist Educational International ). She is an exchange partner in the program of the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia to meet and exchange young people with Israel.
