Na'amat is an acronym for Nashim Ovdot U'Mitnadvot (Hebrew: נשים עובדות ומתנדבות), lit. "Working and Volunteering Women."
Historyedit
Na'amat is the largest women's movement in Israel. It has a membership of 800,000 women, (Jews, Arabs, Druze and Circassians) representing the entire spectrum of Israel society. Most are volunteers.[1] The organization has 100 branches in cities, towns and settlements all over the country.[1] It also has sister organizations in other countries whose members are part of the World Labour Zionist Movement and the World Zionist Organization. The American branch was founded in 1926; it was first called Pioneer Women of Palestine, and then renamed Pioneer Women in 1939, and in 1981 it was renamed again to Na'amat.[2]
In 2008, Na'amat, together with two other women's organizations, received the Israel Prize for lifetime achievement and special contribution to society and the State of Israel.[3][4]
