Initiatives Today
Shomera aims to inspire others and to set an example as an environmental leader who facilitates the generation of an impact far greater than its own size would suggest – an impact achieved through the fruitful collaboration between all parties involved on each of Shomera's initiatives. By creating sustainability  projects and alliances with academia, government and green businesses, Shomera is on its way to implementing groundbreaking replicable models.

In our early years, our projects, which were implemented in the greater Jerusalem metropolitan area, achieved national impact due to their visionary nature. Today, Shomera's focus  is on initiatives with national and international influence.

 

Shomera is further privileged to contribute to urban sustainability through its active role in various national and local forums, including: Life and Environment Board of Directors,  "The Path to Sustainability Coalition"- of the Environmental Movement; Directors General Committee for Sustainable Development ("The Path to Sustainability Coalition" representative), The "Water Coalition" of the Environmental Movement and as the only environmental NGO accompanying the Chamber of Commerce Greywater Recycling Unit.
