Haichud Hahaklai

Haichud Hahaklai youth movement began its activity in 1978 in the settlements of the Haichud Hahaklai (Agricultural Cooperative Society) settling movement. It first operated in one cluster of settlements in the Sharon area and over time spread throughout the country.

In 1985 the Haichud Hahaklai decided to establish a youth division. This was the basis for the founding of the youth movement.

It currently operates 46 chapters throughout the country.

Haichud Hahaklai is a pluralist youth movement that educates towards social activity and involvement. Its members are at the center of decision making, thus enabling new initiatives and decisions about activity directions. It conducts activity with the participation of members from all chapters in the aim of fostering acquaintances and forging relationships.

Haichud Hahaklai conducts ongoing activity as well as a theme-based summer camp, in addition to seminars and training courses and senior age-group field trips.

Haichud Hahaklai has a Shnat Sherut track (Service Year - refers to a community volunteer year in which the volunteers defer their army service by one year) - Garin Achim – the brothers group (garin - refers to a broad group comprised of several small groups). The garin is comprised of Haichud Hahaklai graduates who choose this route of hagshama through social community activity (hagshama, realization in Hebrew, a youth movement term referring to processes the members undergo in the aim of realizing their purpose, aspirations and values as they were educated in the youth movement, usually referring to the Service Year and Nahal tracks).

The youth movement’s principles include:

Educating towards settling the country and contributing to community life and education.

Educating towards cultivating the individual and self-realization, stemming from the belief that cultivating the individual will lead to contribution in their social circle.

Developing and cultivating young leadership, underscoring self-leadership of the youth throughout the youth movement.

Educating to Zionism, to love of country and acquaintance with it, to Jewish tradition, Jewish heritage and familiarity with Israeli society.

Cultivating relationships between youth in the Haichud Hahaklai settlements and society at large.
