Approximately 45 families live today in Meitzar, all of them working on building a renewed community, on shaping the identity of the settlement and on implementing our educational vision and social contract.
The families of Meitzar work in nearby settlements of the Golan or in the Jordan Valley and the Galilee. Some of them work in agriculture while others develop various business projects in Meitzar and outside it.
In Meitzar there is a college for leadership and social responsibility with a pre-military program with 80 students each year.
The project of reestablishing Moshav Meitzar is a unique project that offers a rare opportunity to shape a significant agricultural community in the Golan, which is one of the most advanced and developed agricultural areas in the country. Eight new families joined Meitzar during the past summer and ten additional ones will join during 2017-2018.
Within the framework of the project, each family will receive an agricultural estate. The families joining the project hire a residential caravan in the settlement. In the next few years, estates will be allocated and the settlers will be able to build their permanent house.
The values of the renewed community of Meitzar are based on love of nature and man, manual labor, mutual aid, tolerance and patience, acceptance of others, social involvement and high community orientation.
Education: There is a daycare center and one kindergarten in Meitzar. There is a variety of elementary schools in the area that offer different educational methods and two high schools. There is an informal education system, a cultural hall, office, rural delivery services, playground, basketball and tennis court and a natural forest at the center of the settlement.
