November 12 – LGBTI Envoy Randy Berry visited Ironi Aleph High School of Arts in Tel Aviv, where he met students and leading educators, academics and lawyers and discussed LGBTI student’s rights. “LGBTI discrimination is just like ethnic, gender, and any other discrimination” Envoy Berry said, and added “people do not know what LGBTI is, and we need to educate them, it is a process and it is a long process”. This program, a joint venture of the U.S. Embassy Public Affairs Office and Israeli Ministry of Education’s Department for Students Rights, highlighted the importance of education towards accepting one’s identity and providing equality and freedom of expression to all students.
