SIETAR English Program: Dr. Shahar Gindi
We are pleased to announce that SIETAR Japan will feature Dr. Shahar Gindi, a senior lecturer and researcher at Levinsky-Wingate Academic Center, as well as a clinical and school psychologist. His research focuses on fostering discussions around controversial topics in the classroom and exploring the role of boundary-crossing teachers, particularly Palestinian teachers in Jewish schools. He is the founder of the Coaching Dialogue Center, which offers in-service teacher training and workshops. Dr. Gindi also leads evaluation teams for educational programs and collaborates with the Ministry of Education to enhance educational policies. He has published extensively on education, psychology, and intercultural relations. In his workshop, Dr. Gindi will focus on the increasing polarization and intolerance in society and its impact on education at all levels, from secondary schools to academia.

SIETAR Japan strives to achieve DEIB
We strive to embrace Diversity, respect and work with those who are from different cultures, races, gender orientations, and religions. It is our goal to deepen our understanding of the needs of each individual and provide the necessary support to achieve Equity. We will continue our best efforts to learn from each other instead of excluding those who are “different.” We respect different viewpoints. We are committed to being inclusive (Inclusion) and want to create a space for all the members to enjoy mutual respect and feel a sense of Belonging. We do not tolerate stereotyping, discrimination and racism toward anyone.
Join us as we enjoy the learning opportunities of DEIB together.
