Conference Summaries
On May 22, 2018, the Mitvim Institute and the Caucus for Strengthening Israel’s Foreign Service held a joint event at the Knesset on how to increase the role of the Knesset in Foreign Affairs. The discussion was based on research conducted at the Mitvim Institute by former Member of Knesset (MK) Nitzan Horowitz. It highlighted the need to establish a separate committee in the Knesset for foreign affairs; to emphasize the importance of parliamentary diplomacy and increase public awareness of this; and to encourage the Knesset to develop an independent agenda on foreign affairs.
