Many are intrigued and have been asking….who is Hagshama?
So, who exactly is Hagshama and what does Hagshama do?

Hagshama, which means fulfillment, is the younger or youth wing of the World Zionist Organisation (WZO). We believe in empowerment and helping you reach your potential – all through bringing your ties with Israel closer. Hagshama are committed to working with youth both in Israel and in the Diaspora.

We have a dream…….
…..to help you and your friends experience one of the most dynamic and enthralling countries in the world. Israel!

……to broaden your awareness of your potential for leadership, activism and Zionist fulfillment within your community.

….to open the hearts and minds of as many young people as possible from around the world to the option of Aliyah.

…….To prove that Zionism can be achieved in original, innovative and exceptional ways that put YOU at the centre of the action.

How do we do this?

We work with you to ensure that in a creative, unique and funky way, your ideas are implemented. Whether it is through seminars, activist training, student meetings, youth groups, social evenings or trips to Israel, Hagshama is there for you!

We tailor make programmes to suit your individual needs. This means that we are flexible and open to learning new things in new ways.
