Kedma Newsletter for Teachers with an Agenda – A newsletter for teachers, administrators, and educational personnel is the main means through which the Kedma Association spreads its perspective for the implementation of social justice for social change through education. The purpose of spreading the newsletter is to expand, encourage and strengthen the voices, dialogue and practices of social justice and equality in classrooms and schools in Israel; to serve as a source of inspiration for educational programs that relate to the students’ worlds, that critically examine the social economic reality in Israel, and are based on multiculturalism, a variety of voices and democratic principles; to encourage teachers who respect their students and promote heart to heart dialogue. Teachers who teach with the purpose of healing and fixing the world and to assist education personnel from other schools to benefit from our successes and our many realizations accumulated through many years of experience.
Kedma Association began distributing the newsletter ‘Teachers with an Agenda’ in 2013 to a small number of teachers. As time passed many teachers registered to receive the newsletter, and its distribution quickly increased and currently stands on 10,000 teachers and administrators who make up its mailing list. The newsletter – ‘Teachers with an Agenda’ is sent twice a month throughout the year, free of charge. The project’s budget is 198,000 NIS.
