Kadima is a 9-month co-ed Modern Orthodox gap year in Israel, run by World Bnei Akiva, welcoming Jewish high school graduates from the USA, Canada, UK, and Europe.
It’s a life-changing year of independence, Jewish growth, and discovery — where you’ll live in Israel, engage with Israeli society first-hand, and deepen your connection to Judaism and Zionism.
The program is designed for motivated young adults who want to grow as Jews and as individuals — all while sharing unforgettable experiences with new friends from around the world.
Kadima offers a unique array of experiences: volunteering, Kibbutz, MDA/Marva, internships, Torah study, travel, and authentic encounters with Israelis. Living in Jerusalem and exploring the land, you’ll gain independence, resilience, and skills that will stay with you for life.
