Jerusalem, 7 January, 2026 (TPS-IL) — At the beginning of this week, the international seminar of the In the Path of Olives initiative, between Greece, Albania, and Israel, opened in the Galilee.
The seminar brings together kindergarten teachers and educators from Greece and Albania, who came to Israel for the purpose of joint professional development in the fields of environmental education, sustainability, and innovative pedagogy in early childhood.
The initiative, which began as a local educational program, has grown into a regional model that strengthens cooperation between the countries of the Mediterranean basin and encourages cross-cultural learning around the olive tree and its environmental and cultural connections.
Israel’s Ministry of Regional Cooperation said it will continue to promote educational initiatives that connect communities, foster regional partnerships, and promote quality and in-depth education for environmental protection.
