CAARI Speaker’s Forum and visit to Yad Lakashish

CAARI was honored for the second year in a row with the most authoritative journalist on Arab affairs internally (The Palestinian Street + The Palestinian leadership) and externally (Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan), Ehud Yaari of Israel Channel 2 and The Washington Institute. Just incite into Israel and Middle East politics!

From there CAARI visited a wonderful center for the elderly – poor choice of words as they are full of energy and willing to work.  Yad LaKashish is a non-profit organization empowering and supporting nearly 300 elderly Jerusalem residents on a daily basis by providing them with creative work opportunities in our artistic workshops.
Great gift shop and a worthy visit.

Free time until late afternoon for visit to the beautiful Israel Museum and a lovely dinner at Modern Restaurant.
Another great day!
