The Duke of Edinburgh International Award – the program was established in Britain in 1956 by the late Duke of Edinburgh, designed to award youth and young adults with personal and practical tools for enhanced growth and maturity, irrespective of origin, religion or background. The program is currently active in 144 countries worldwide with the participation of around 8 million young people. The non-profit society’s activities in Israel are attended by thousands of young people aged 14 – 24, from all demographics, Jews and Arabs, secular and religious, new immigrants, and so on, all on an equal footing.
As part of these activities, which are focused on areas outside the centre of the country, the young people gain experiences, face challenges and reinforce their self-confidence, so that entering adulthood will be based on belief in their abilities and skills to better themselves and their surroundings.
The understanding that social gaps are the basis for many of society’s ills spurred Adv. Amir Amar, head of our firm and co-chairman of the non-profit organization, to launch a new program known as “Breaking the Glass Ceiling”.
The new programme includes a breakthrough personal experiential journey, in which the participants, pupils and instructors, receive tools to break ‘the glass ceiling’ on the road to success, among others, through “Golden Encounters”. These are monthly encounters with public opinion leaders, celebrities, jurists, artists and performers, academics, athletes and businesspersons, who are leaders in their fields, and who mentor workshops, give lectures and contribute of their time in any other way, in order to encourage, motivate and pave the way to success for these young people through their own personal stories.
