This initiative proposes to facilitate local dialogue on the nature of prayer in the public sphere, aiming to clarify red lines, explore areas of compromise, and support local authorities in reaching context-sensitive agreements. The process began in September 2025 with a gathering of dozens of prayer leaders and a discussion on the character of public space. It continued with a public conference bringing together representatives of local authorities, civil society, policymakers, and scholars to address these issues, alongside the development of a proposed process for shaping broad agreements and an action plan within elected authorities, in collaboration with civil society actors and experts in the field.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6cbfe7e elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"6cbfe7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\"><ul class=\"initiative-members-by-period\"><li class=\"period-item\"><span class=\"period-name\" style=\"background-color: rgb(204,46,88);\">CoLab 02<\/span><ul class=\"members-list\"><li class=\"member-item\">Shlomit Ravitski Tur-Paz<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class=\"period-item\"><span class=\"period-name\" style=\"background-color: rgb(234,162,53);\">CoLab 04<\/span><ul class=\"members-list\"><li class=\"member-item\">Inbar Bluzer Shalem<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"loop-item\" data-elementor-id=\"7017\" class=\"elementor elementor-7017 e-loop-item e-loop-item-7215 post-7215 initiative type-initiative status-publish hentry initiative_status-active\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\" data-custom-edit-handle=\"1\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1553f95 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1553f95\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0392dbb e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0392dbb\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3364d08 elementor-widget elementor-widget-theme-post-title elementor-page-title elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3364d08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"theme-post-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/colab.org.il\/en\/initiative\/advocacy-project-for-youth\/\">Advocacy Project for Youth<\/a><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6fbe003 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6fbe003\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b9cda9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"7b9cda9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/colab.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/status2.jpg\" alt=\"Active\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-948043a elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-info\" data-id=\"948043a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-info.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-inline-items elementor-icon-list-items elementor-post-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item elementor-repeater-item-cee08e9 elementor-inline-item\" itemprop=\"about\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text elementor-post-info__item elementor-post-info__item--type-terms\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Active<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0fe7c8e elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"0fe7c8e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\">This initiative is designed to train a group of youth leaders to promote responsible, relevant, and fact-based digital discourse.

At the end of the training, participants shared the knowledge they had gained with additional groups in the city.
