The Center aims to develop policy thinking and policy imagination among education leaders and to connect graduates of the School with the various stakeholders active in the Israeli education ecosystem. The policy arena has undergone significant changes over the last decade, regarding both theory and practice, challenging the ways leaders think about and deal with issues on their agenda. These changes raise the need for different and more diverse methods of action, based on broad and updated professional knowledge from various conceptual approaches, both conventional and critical, as well as in-depth ethical and philosophical inquiry. This need has intensified considerably in light of the challenges and crises that policymakers and policy implementers have faced since October 2023 and all the more so in the field of education.
