The seminar focused on attempts to find ways to integrate the Arab sector into Israeli society especially regarding education, culture, land and employment. To this end, the Prime Minister participated in various working groups composed of both Jews and Arabs. This was the first event of its kind in which the Prime Minister of Israel met with the Arab public with deep and sincere desire to both study the issues of concern to the Arab minority and find solutions.
