OpenDor Media partners with Haviv Rettig Gur to further their mission of strengthening young peoples’ understanding of and connection to Israel and the Jewish people.

OpenDor Media is thrilled to announce a partnership with renowned Israeli journalist and analyst, Haviv Rettig Gur, to further their mission of strengthening an understanding of and connection to Israel and the Jewish people by producing high-quality, nuanced and engaging content.

Rettig Gur, a senior analyst at The Times of Israel, has covered Israeli politics, the country’s foreign and regional policies, as well as its relationship with the Jewish diaspora. In his role as Senior Educational Advisor, Rettig Gur will work closely with the team to develop, review, and enhance content related to Israeli politics, foreign affairs, and history. He will also feature as a presenter in a selection of upcoming videos on the UNPACKED YouTube and social media channels, as well as a guest on podcast episodes of  Wondering Jews with Mijal and Noam and Unpacking Israeli History

In addition, Rettig Gur joins the advisory board for a new OpenDor Media division focused on empowering independent and public schools to engage thoughtfully with the topics of Israel-Palestine, antisemitism, Jewish history, courageous conversations, and media literacy.

“In Haviv, we are working with the best. As one of the most important thought leaders of this generation in Israeli politics, Zionism, and modern Israeli history, Haviv will be a valued partner and consultant for UNPACKED,” says Noam Weissman, executive vice president of OpenDor Media. “We look forward to creating thought-provoking content that will pique the curiosity of everyone listening and watching.”

Rettig Gur shares, “OpenDor Media is a miracle. Fast, smart, wide-reaching. If we didn’t have it, we’d have to now build it from scratch. The great task of this generation of Jews is to recover and reclaim our story. It is a journey Jews, in all their diversity, need to take together. It’s such an astonishing privilege to be able to be part of that work.”
