The Center for Strategic Dialogue

The Strategic Dialogue Center at Netanya Academic College is a unique institute that applies innovative approaches to examine and tackle  different issues that are in controversy in forms of research and roundtable meetings for  finding  solutions to regional and global conflicts.

The center is headed by Brig. Gen. (res.)  Dr. Efraim Sneh, a  medical doctor, former military officer and statesman.
