At the age of 17, Amal Elsana-Alhjooj established Israel’s first Bedouin women’s NGO, AJEEC (The Arab-Jewish Center for Equality, Empowerment and Cooperation). AJEEC addresses every unmet need for these women and their communities. Promoting health, economic equality, shared society and education for Israel’s Bedouin community, AJEEC is at the forefront of change in the Negev.

NIFC is proud to feature Nobel Peace Prize laureate nominee Elsana-Alhjooj and the directors of AJEEC-NISPED.
