Israeli duo bring speaking tour to Prince George

Sep 26, 2024 | 5:00 AM

PRINCE GEORGE— The Jewish Community of Prince George and the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver are hosting a presentation on September 29 at the Prince George Playhouse. The event will feature Isreali Husband and Wife duo Noam and Adi Bedein .

The presentation titled “A Journey of Healing: From Holocaust Remembrance to Environmental Renewal” will include two separate pieces followed by a Q&A session.

The first piece will led by Adi Rabinowitz Bedein and will be a 360-degree tour of The Car Wall, which is a pile of burnt cars west of the Tkuma in the Gaza envelope. The pile was originally created by evacuating the burnt cars from the Gaza envelope after the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. Since then it has become a memorial piece recognizing the largest terrorist attack in the history of the State of Israel. Through the presentation Adi will bridge the gap between Holocaust Education with the Commemoration of October 7.

The second piece will be led by Noam Bedein and will be a discussion on how Israel’s water resource can be innovated to develop sustainable tourism that fosters social resilience and post-traumatic healing while protecting and revitalizing Israel’s natural environment. Noam has dedicated his career in documenting the restoration of historic water sources, promoting ecotourism, and strengthening the Abraham Accords for water and marine conservation.

“The Jewish community of Prince George is so thrilled to welcome Noam and Adi to Prince George for this illustrious event,” says Eli Klasner, local community member. “Noam and Adi are exploring the Pacific Northwest, sharing their message of hope and resilience from their unique Israeli perspective and we are certain that their presentations will hold tremendous meaning and interest for people from all walks of life. Additionally, we are so very honoured to have the support of the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver and appreciate their interest in helping to support this event.”
