The International Institute was established in 1950 as a joint initiative of MASHAV and the Histadrut - the General Federation of Labor in Israel. The International Institute trains leaders from emerging
countries in various subjects, such as credit institutions for civil society, women's empowerment
programs, social security networks, rural area non-agricultural employment programs, community
medicine, NGOs and the democratic society, structural adjustment and globalization of the economy,
youth leadership, management of voluntary organizations, community empowerment and education
for democracy and peace. The Institute provides training both in Israel and in on-the-spot courses
in host countries. Courses are provided in English, Russian, Arabic, French, Spanish and Eastern
European languages.
The Institute attempts to provide training solutions to the changing needs of grassroots and
community level activities for the promotion of national development in developing countries,
through people-based organizations. The central tenet of the Institute's training is the notion that
peoples' organizations and other civil society organizations belonging in the civil society play an
important role in sustainable development.
