Lectures and Workshops
2025
(June 2025)
On June 11, 2025, I presented my research at the first PhD Poster Conference, organized by the Kreitman School of Advanced Graduate Studies at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. The event brought together doctoral researchers from various disciplines, offering a platform to share ongoing projects, engage in interdisciplinary dialogue, and receive feedback from peers and faculty.
As part of the conference, I presented the second paper of my doctoral dissertation, which focuses on transparency in multi-member decision-making processes in Israeli local government authorities. The research investigates how transparency mechanisms, such as access to information, documentation of discussions, and stakeholder involvement, shape the ability of decision-making bodies to reach well-informed decisions.
Presenting this work in poster format allowed me to refine my communication of complex theoretical and empirical insights in a concise and accessible manner. It was also an opportunity to reflect on the study’s practical relevance for improving governance structures at the local level.
I had the opportunity to lead the second workshop on transparency and access to information in local authorities, conducted as part of the inter-district transparency team’s annual program.
As part of the session, I gave a talk on citizens’ expectations and perceptions regarding transparent governance, focusing on actionable tools to promote transparency in municipal practice.
The workshop provided a valuable platform to engage with experienced professionals, exchange insights, and collaboratively address the intersection of effective administration and public accountability.

Spoke on Ethics, Transparency, and Public Engagement in Local Government. (May 2024)
In my lecture at the training conference for newly elected officials in the Southern District, I focused on transparency, ethics, and public engagement among elected representatives. The lecture emphasized the importance of promoting these values in local authorities, with a particular focus on transparent decision-making processes, commitment to professional ethics, and the necessity of broad and meaningful public participation. Additionally, I presented practical examples and applicable tools to help elected officials integrate these principles into their daily work.
I had the privilege of leading a workshop on transparency and information accessibility in local authorities as part of the inter-district transparency team’s work plan.
During the workshop, I delivered a lecture on information accessibility and transparency in local government, highlighting the importance of open governance, clear communication with the public, and practical tools for enhancing transparency in municipal operations.
This was an exceptional opportunity to engage with leading professionals in the field, share knowledge and practical tools, and collaborate on challenges that bridge professionalism and public service.
