Unique circumstances led to the establishment of the State of Israel, which absorbed millions of immigrants from various cultures and went through significant changes politically, socially and economically. After six decades, while taking into consideration the developments in the entire world, and in the Jewish world in particular, one can examine leaders, events and phenomenon in Israel. During the Shabbaton, we will look into the history of the Religious Zionist Movement, its achievements and challenges, and will participate in the "Orthodox programs representatives' conference". In addition, we will examine participants' connections to the State of Israel, while providing tools for its promotion in the world.

Goals:
- Study and discussion of values, ideology and achievements of the Religious Zionist Movement.
- Deepening understanding of changes that have occurred in the character of Israel over the years.
- Personal interaction with important figures in Israeli culture and the Religious Zionist Movement.
- Strengthening the connection to Israel and providing the tools for representing Israel in the world.
