The Match-Making Program – New Exchange Partnerships 2026 (Part I)

ConAct and the Israel Youth Exchange Authority invite you to the Match-Making Program 2026, a programme to establish new partnerships between German and Israeli youth welfare and education organisations.

The two-part seminar will bring together German and Israeli partner organisations that have already been “matched” in advance based on the wishes of the organisations. The aim is to get to know each other personally and to plan initial encounter projects together. Initial planning is facilitated by providing information on the content, funding and educational design of the programmes. The seminars consist of a joint part in Ramat Gan and Berlin respectively, as well as on-site visits to the organisations of the respective new exchange partners.

Please note: The seminar consists of two parts:

Part 1: Seminar in Israel (14 to 20 March 2026)

Part 2: Seminar week in Germany (7 to 12 June 2026)

Participation in both parts of the programme is mandatory.

The first application deadline is 11 January 2026, after which the first partnerships will be linked.
