Dr. Neta Lipman, Professional Director
Nice to meet you, Dr. Neta Lipman. In my last position, I served as the Vice President of the Natural Resources and Climate Resilience Cluster at the Ministry of Environmental Protection. Before entering this position, I served as the CEO of the Israeli Society for Ecology and Environmental Sciences, where I worked on promoting environmental and sustainability issues among government, industry and academia.
I have a bachelor's degree in political science and geography, a master's degree in political science (with honours), and a doctorate from Tel Aviv University on environmental justice. My knowledge and experience come from a place of commitment to public commitment, and they are built from the concept that I believe in the power of research, science, technology and logic to change reality and improve the world, but I know that this will only happen if the knowledge reaches the decision makers, the key players in the economic arena and the general public in the right way.
As the director of the new environmental school, I see my task as leading environmental education that is directly connected to contemporary challenges in the field of sustainability and ecology.
My vision is to create an educational environment that fosters critical and innovative thinking and encourages school students to take an active part in preserving the environment and solving climate problems. I believe that every student can contribute and be part of the change, so my goal is to prepare them to face complex challenges and make them leaders in the field of the environment.
As a director, I strive to create study programs that combine theoretical and practical learning so that the students will not only learn about environmental problems but also act and implement creative solutions in the field. I believe in a combination of collaborations with governmental, academic, and business bodies, with the aim of empowering the students' ability to change and act on a practical level.
Every student in our new school should understand that he not only receives knowledge but also learns how to realise it, how to influence, and how to be a leader in the field of the environment. I want to see the students of our school not only as researchers and scientists but also as creators and entrepreneurs who lead the world to a better place.
Together we can make a significant change and build a future where sustainability and the environment are not just concepts but a way of life.
Best,
Dr. Neta Lipman
