OLAM aims to unite the diverse student population by bringing awareness to their connection to Israel. OLAM shall strive to foster this relationship by educating students about Israel's diversity, history, and humanitarian values. The objective is to unite Jews and non-Jews alike and empower them to advocate for Israel. This will come in the form of interactive workshops; speakers from Israel and

all over the world; celebratory social events; student-led lectures and programs; presentations from other supporting organizations and allies; finally, opportunities for travelling abroad and getting a hands-on experience of Israel's cultural diversity and rich history. OLAM sees Israel as a model for inspiring young leaders to advocate and implement change. The word "OLAM" is Hebrew for "world"; this represents Israel's culturally and religiously diverse nature and global impact. By starting OLAM, the hope is to work towards a world that is not fragmented but united in its efforts to empower Jews and non-Jews to eradicate misconceptions that foster hate and divide.

Meet the diverse faces of OLAM;

“Nakhzi! I am Jackie, and recently, I have taken an interest in Israel’s diversification and culture. As a Bukharian Jew, I have come to appreciate the various cultural traditions within Israel, which has strengthened my appreciation for a multi-cultural state. OLAM truly appeals to me because I would love to meet with others who can share their unique perspectives and experiences of Israel, while displaying an accepting attitude towards different faiths. I am excited to embark upon all of the amazing opportunities that OLAM has to offer!”

Meet the diverse faces of OLAM;

"My name is Malcolm, a first year student at the University of Toronto, St. George Campus. I'm in the midst of a double major in Psychology and Political Science with my ultimate goal being to pursue a career in Clinical Psychology. As a non-Jew, the Jewish people, Israel & Israel Advocacy hold a special place in my heart. I have a unique perspective that allows me to understand the need for strong passionate advocacy on behalf of Israel. In a world filled with darkness, Israel shines a bright light and it is my hope that through continued work with OLAM, that I can share that vision of Israel with both Jewish and Non-Jewish students to help foster an ultimate goal of peace and unity."
