Who We Are

The Israel-Africa Relations Institute, founded in January 2024 by entrepreneur and philanthropist Haim Taib, is a non-profit organization focused on building strong connections between Israel and African countries. We work with key stakeholders to highlight the importance of Africa to Israel, emphasizing opportunities for collaboration in politics, business, and technology. Through partnerships, research, and outreach, we aim to raise awareness among Israelis—both the public and policymakers—about Africa’s potential.
