On Thursday, 24 February Daniel Liwerant, head of the Mexican Jewish community, came to visit the Council.

His visit started in Sde Nitzan with a personal meeting at the home of Steering Committee Chair Yardena Visoker, and Partnership Director Ravit Ochayon-Michal.

Afterward, a joint visit was paid to Beit Mexico on Kibbutz Gvulot, a project that Liwerant personally launched and that has enjoyed his continual support.

A meeting was held there with Gesher L'Kesher (People to People) Coordinator Tal Klamer-Gilad, Ori Vorba and Nitai, coordinator of agricultural operations and director of the Mitzpe Gvulot Guest Houses.

Later, we took Daniel to see the final preparations for one of the special events planned at Eshkol Hall in honor of the 60th anniversary festivities ? an exhibition of works by Eshkol artists that includes some of Yardena's sculptures.

Daniel was very impressed by the Nofei Habsor School and the new library, to which he was accompanied by the Council head and by Vered Tal, the school principal.

Daniel Liwerant concluded his visit by meeting with representatives of the Steering Committee and with two members of the counselor delegation that traveled to Mexico. 

Daniel's visit was a very successful one, and the Council head personally invited him to be present at the main 60th anniversary event, to be held this coming May.
