AVI Featured Events
Allied Voices for Israel is proud to host a diverse range of impactful events that bring communities together in solidarity with Israel and the fight against anti-Jewish hatred.
This year, we are thrilled to partner with Sharaka, an organization founded in the wake of the historic Abraham Accords to build "people-to-people" peace
between Israel and the Arab world, to bring three inspiring
delegates to Canada for their inaugural cross-Canada tour
from October 15th to October 22nd. ​
​

courageous storytelling, and regional perspective from

We enjoyed hosting Shalom Namaste, an evening of relaxation, mindfulness, and yoga with community members. The event featured a diverse lineup of instructors offering something for everyone—from restorative to high-energy movement.
​
We were honoured to welcome nearly 1,000 Canadians across four cities to our exclusive event, United We Stand with Yoseph Haddad, where attendees heard firsthand from an inspiring advocate for Israel and coexistence. We hosted Rawan Osman in Montreal and Vancouver for a meaningful discussion about the Middle East. Tragic Awakening: A New Look at the World's Oldest Hatred details Osman's challenges with extremism and her transformation into a powerful voice for peace between Israel and the Arab world.
​
Furthering our commitment to meaningful, cross-cultural dialogue, we were privileged to co-host a landmark symposium at Beth Torah Congregation, bringing together prominent Canadian Indigenous and Jewish leaders, elders, and scholars. We were deeply honoured to be guided by Elder Dr. Wendy Phillips and Elder Mark Phillips, and to hear from distinguished speakers such as Consul General Idit Shamir, the Honourable Harry S. LaForme, O.C, I.P.C., Professor Andrew Pessin, and Dr. Sheree Trotter, among other remarkable voices.This unique gathering explored treaty relationships, shared values, and parallel perspectives on education and indigeneity, fostering a powerful spirit of lasting friendship and allyship.
​
In response to the surge in anti-Jewish hatred following October 7th, we launched the AVI Wartime Briefings—a critical series of five emergency workshops designed to empower and educate our community. These briefings provided invaluable tools to combat misinformation, confront hatred, and stand strong against rising antisemitism. Through these and other initiatives, AVI remains committed to fostering unity, education, and advocacy in support of Israel and the Jewish community.
The Herzl Awards 2025
Allied Voices for Israel was thrilled to host the annual Herzl Awards, an Oscars-style ceremony celebrating the courageous student leaders who are changing the narrative about Israel on high school and university campuses across Canada.
​
These students stood on the frontlines against anti-Jewish hatred – both on campus and online – building coalitions with their peers to educate, engage, and empower the next generation.
​
The event also featured a live painting auction and raffle, bringing together friends and supporters for a memorable night of connection, celebration, and community.
