Star for Life Jerusalem

Star for Life Jerusalem

Star for Life Jerusalem is an independent foundation within SfL International. In the eastern part of the eternal city, students are supported through the SfL Education programme.

Our aim is to empower youth in East Jerusalem with the life skills they need to make the most of their education and realise their aspirations for a better future – in a city and society shaped by social cohesion, sustainable peace, and shared prosperity.

Through Sigma Lab, we also support the development of the Hi-Tech ecosystem in East Jerusalem by providing employment opportunities, career guidance, training, and educational programmes. Through the SFL Job Hub, young job seekers are matched with employers. The work is led by Country Director Yoav “Zimi” Zimran.

Our work in Jerusalem

At Star for Life, we are not satisfied with simply delivering our school programme – we continuously measure and evaluate our work to ensure that we meet our goals and create real, lasting impact for the learners we serve. This is why we have a dedicated Monitoring & Evaluation department, led by our Research Director doctor Per Strand.
