Yael Neeman, CEO of the Lautman Foundation, which established the Dov Lautman Forum's Conference on Democracy and Shared Society, warns that civics education in Israel has been neglected for years. Ahead of this year's conference, which will take place online in March, Neeman told KAN reporter Naomi Segal that the price is a generation of Israeli youth who do not understand democracy and what binds shared society together.
