This report focuses on the inequality in daycare facilities for Jewish children and Arab children. The report provides significant data, including the fact that only 2% of all daycare facilities in Israel today are designated for Arab children. The Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs’ struggle to retain its control over daycare facilities nationwide only emphasizes its importance (a budget of NIS 450 million a year) and significance to the general public. As of 2003, the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs oversees approximately 1,700 daycare facilities, of which only 36 were located in Arab communities.
