The Global Young Professionals present their International Dinner series. International Dinners are tailor-made for young professionals aged 21 to 40 who are passionate about cultural exchange and international networking.

On this occasion, we will host a Luncheon featuring Israeli cuisine along with a special guest Gil Hoffman, the Executive Director of HonestReporting.

About HonestReporting:

Established in 2000, HonestReporting is a Jerusalem-based non-profit watchdog committed to preventing and exposing anti-Israel bias and misinformation in traditional and social media. We work to ensure truth, integrity, and fairness and to combat ideological prejudice in journalism as it impacts Israel.

HonestReporting holds the media and news “influencers” accountable for the stories they ultimately publish. We monitor print, broadcast and social media news sources to expose the subtle, implicit, and explicit anti-Israel bias that news consumers are fed daily.

About the speaker: 

Gil Hoffman is the executive director of HonestReporting, which fights for Israel in the international mainstream and social media; a lecturer on political strategy at Israel’s College of Management and served for 24 years as chief political correspondent and analyst for The Jerusalem Post, where he is now a regular columnist.

The Algemeiner website recently named him one of the top 100 people positively influencing Jewish life, alongside presidents Biden and Zelensky and prime ministers Sunak and Netanyahu.

He was raised in Chicago, graduated Magna Cum Laude from Northwestern University’s School of Journalism, and wrote for the Miami Herald and Arizona Republic before moving to Israel.

A reserve soldier in the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit, he has lectured in every major English-speaking country in the world, more than half the Canadian provinces, and recently made history in Hawaii by becoming the first speaker to have lectured about Israel in all 50 US states. He lives with his family in Jerusalem.
