Devorah Amar discusses promoting Triple WellBeing through English Language education in Israel's schools amidst complex socio-political challenges.
Devorah is an educator and college professor. She first connected with ThoughtBox through colleagues from the Heschel Centre for Sustainability who have partnered with us on regenerative leadership programmes. Devorah holds a complex and challenging space in her work - navigating the complexities of divisive politics and life in a war-zone with the nurturing of cultural curiosity and social connection that comes with language-learning. As part of her action research she focused on promoting wellbeing, specifically Triple WellBeing, through English Language education and hosted a national Triple WellBeing Day for learners across the country. This was a celebration event - weaving language learning and diversity with social engagement and conscious conversations; all under the focus of strengthening self-care, people-care, and Earth-care. This work continues to weave its way through community, policy and practice with allies across the educational landscape in Israel and within the Palestinian communities within the country.
