Israeli Presidential Conference: Facing Tomorrow 2013. The Human Factor in Shaping Tomorrow.
18-20 June, 2013, Jerusalem

Inspired by the vision of the President of the State of Israel, Mr. Shimon Peres, the Israeli Presidential Conference is a meeting place for exploring the developments shaping our future as well as the decisions and actions needed to be taken for paving the way toward a better tomorrow for Israel, the Jewish people and the entire world.

“Facing Tomorrow” – the fifth Israeli Presidential Conference under the auspices of President Shimon Peres – will take place in Jerusalem on 18-20 June, 2013. As in previous years, the Conference will look at tomorrow and engage the central issues that will influence the face of our future: geopolitics, economics, society, environment, culture, identity, education, new media, and more.

In the 2013 Conference, we will give special emphasis to the human factor and its role in shaping our tomorrow.
