The TALI Education Fund is dedicated to developing pluralistic Jewish education in Israeli public-secular schools, through the sponsoring of the TALI (Hebrew acronym for "reinforced Jewish studies") Network of schools and pre-schools all over Israel. TALI schools have made Jewish studies and experiences a central objective of the curriculum and whole-school environment. The TALI Education Fund guides curriculum development and teacher training, publishes textbooks, and conducts experiential programming, with the goal of providing pupils with a strong connection to their Jewish heritage, a pluralistic approach to Judaism, and a tolerant attitude towards other religions and ways of life. There are currently (2008-9) over 180 schools and pre-schools with 35,000 pupils in the TALI Netowrk.
