A course on biodynamic beekeeping ended in June of 2024 in the village of Baqa al-Gharbia, where 17 graduates each received a hive containing a queen and a swarm of bees. The course, which began in February under the guidance of educator and expert Yossi Aud, founder of the Bees for Peace project, took place at the MAAN Workers Association’s Center in the Triangle region, managed by Wafa Tiara.
17 inspiring women, both Arab and Jewish, participated in a unique course to learn about biodynamic beekeeping at MAAN’s office in Baqa al-Gharbiyeh (Triangle region, Israel). This project, consisting of six intensive sessions begun in May, and was the result of a longstanding collaboration between Sindyanna of Galilee and MAAN – Workers’ Organization, as part of the “Women and Work” project that MAAN has been running in the Triangle for 19 years.

Additionally, in March WAC published, in both an online booklet and on its Facebook page, guidelines in Arabic on how to file unemployment claims. In order to operate the hotline, WAC opened a dedicated WhatsApp account to which it could send scanned documents. It recruited some 10 volunteers who were trained to assist WAC staff in helping hundreds of people to receive the necessary documentation from the Employment Service and submit them to Social Security.
WAC-MAAN and Sindyanna of Galilee have decided to dedicate International Women’s Day of 2019 to green economy and sustainability. The event, which took place on March 9 at the Arab-Hebrew Theater in Jaffa, was dedicated to the need to shift towards solar energy and hydroponic farming. Some of the dozens of women who participated in the event from the Triangle region have begun a hydroponic course in January, and they are undergoing a transformation. In dedicating themselves to this endeavor, they are joining a major global trend, in which women’s movements lead the way to societal and technological change. Thus, they can save human society from pollution and violence and transform it into a world of transnational cooperation.
