Shared Life was founded in 2016 by Dr. Keren Katko-Ayali as a volunteer activist initiative to collect, document, and make accessible coexistence initiatives throughout Israel. Over its active years, the site served as a living platform, regularly updated with: an events calendar, a civil society job board, calls for proposals, a newsletter, and more – providing useful information to thousands of users, organizations, and institutions.<\/p>\n

Today, the site serves as a knowledge hub and civic digital archive of Jewish-Arab engagement across the decade 2016\u20132026, during years when public discourse has tended to amplify polarization, violence, and racism.<\/p>\n
