Company history
Negba was born in 2007 as the educational arm of a movement of organizations and individuals seeking to revitalize the pioneering spirit and community-focus of the Zionist movement. The name Negba signifies a journey to the desert and reflects the transformative potential of living closer to the natural world. By working toward a common goal of sustainable development in the Negev, our people can again find purpose as a united people.

 

Negba was established by leaders in the fields of informal and experiential education.
