The evening opened with a greeting from Mayor Tziki Avisar and a welcome by Mor Shimoni, Director of the Human Resources and Innovation Department, who spoke about the strong and professional roles of women within the municipality.

The first part of the event concluded with a short talk by Inbal Raz, Advisor to the Mayor for the Advancement of Women and Gender Equality, who discussed the connection between women and humor – about women and jokes, and how laughter can be good, healthy, and beneficial for us all.

In the second part of the evening, participants enjoyed a presentation by Ravit Asaf –former beauty queen and current businesswoman – who shared her life story. She spoke openly about the moments of growth and crisis that shaped her journey, describing how these experiences ultimately led her to a significant turning point in her life, when she sold her life’s work and embarked on a new path.

The organizers noted that the success of this inspiring event would not have been possible without the wonderful collaboration of many contributors, including the Human Resources Department – led by Director Mor Shimoni with Bracha and Nela; Kobi Pinto, Chairman of the Workers Committee; Mital Amoyal, Assistant to the CEO; and Silvan, the technical coordinator.

In closing, the organizers expressed their gratitude to all partners involved and shared their hope that this event will become a new tradition.

Happy International Women’s Day to all!
