Our Commitment

Harnessing Innovation to Leave No One Behind

Israel is a vibrant, multicultural society, with 9 million inhabitants who speak 35 different languages. Ongoing development is at the heart of Israeli society. Since the establishment of the State, Israel has absorbed waves of immigrants, over 3.2 million, often refugees or penniless. Israel's land-area is 22,072 square kilometers with an average population density of 400 people per square kilometer. Over 90% of the country's population lives in urban areas.

Sustainable development in Israel is not a luxury or a catch phrase – it is vital in order to improve the well-being of present and future generations. This is one of the reasons that Israel attributes great importance to the SDGs and to the processes they engender.

Fueled by a dynamic entrepreneurial spirit, robust technological infrastructure and a highly skilled human workforce, Israel produces solutions in all three pillars of sustainability. Innovation is one of Israel’s most valuable resources and its breakthrough solutions in fields such as communication, internet, medical systems, agriculture, biotechnology, security, water desalination, wastewater treatment and recycling, water management, digital printing and more, have long facilitated sustainable development in Israel and globally. Israel's vision is to continue to nurture its culture of innovation and expand it to all people in need on our planet and to give practical expression to the noble value of leaving no one behind.

Tree Planting Experience in Israel

Tree Planting Experience in Israel. Reforestation is an important part of fighting against climate change as well as conserving fragile biomes. The Tree Planting Experience in Israel supports the rehabilitation of arid regions, decreases soil erosion, and reduces pollution. Eshet DMC allows visitors to experience these projects first-hand with unique tree planting events in various sites around the country, such as in Yatir Forest, one of Israel's foremost afforestation projects. In this activity, people learn to plant local trees that help to capture CO2 and ensure the existence of a desert ecosystem. The Weizmann Institute and the Desert Research Institute have designated experts who take tourists through the techniques, explaining how trees help in water management, reducing desertification, and fostering local species. This provides tourists with vital knowledge on how trees are integrated into the balance of such sensitive ecosystems. The Tree Planting Experience in Israel is a worthwhile and informative activity. Participants, regardless of whether they come alone, with family, or as a corporate group, leave Israel’s environment in better shape than they found it. Taking part in such activities plays a significant role in addressing the ecological issues of the region and ensuring the landscapes remain enriching for decades to come. Eshet DMC puts an emphasis on trees because they have always wanted to promote sustainable tourism. Planting trees facilitates visitors engaging with nature, some of which aid Israel’s reforestation initiative. It is something that many guests would certainly want to participate in.

Sustainable Desert Agriculture in Israel

Sustainable Desert Agriculture in Israel. Farming in dry areas is one of modern humanity’s most difficult tasks. Overarching climatic conditions and absent water supply resources render traditional farming techniques counterproductive. As a result, modern Israel is considered one of the leading countries in sustainable dryland farming. To highlight and explain these new developments, Eshet DMC has prepared the Sustainable Desert Agriculture Project, an effort that aims to connect visitors with new agricultural solutions and innovation. The Desert Agriculture Project also encompasses field trips to these farms and laboratories, which are helpful in explaining Israeli deep knowledge and capabilities regarding all aspects of farming in the desert and other advanced technologies like hydroponics, vertical farming, and ultra-efficient drip irrigation. Participants engage with researchers, farmers, and agritech startups, learning how these innovations augment resource use and maximize crop yield simultaneously. In addition to advanced observation, participants can take part in workshops and practical sessions aimed at resource and soil-sustaining farming. These activities help showcase the full extent of the locomotion and impact of these solutions on the world’s food security issue. Not just local experts but international participants will also gain a lot of insight from these sessions and participate in encouraging local innovations. Eshet DMC’s work with sustainable tourism encompasses more than just tourism. It underpins knowledge exchange and global partnerships. The Sustainable Desert Agriculture Project is an initiative designed to promote food security by offering agricultural options in regions that suffer from a lack of water. Participants of this project lear…
