Israel Project

Israel Project

The Israel Project (TIP) an international non-profit organization, provides journalists and leaders with information about the Middle East. Founded in 2002 by Jennifer Laszlo Mizrahi, TIP proactively offers information about Israel and the Middle East to journalists throughout the world. With offices in Washington D.C, Jerusalem, and Sderot, TIP circulates resources such as press releases, backgrounders, and multimedia materials to a wide range of journalists and researchers.

For Journalists

TIP provides information to well over 80,000 journalists by offering background material, press conferences, and one-on-one interviews with various experts and political figures. TIP has supplied information for thousands of news stories around the world. TIP also conducts polling and public opinion research. TIP provides this information, free of charge, with the support of its communications experts, such as Frank Luntz, Stan Greenberg and Neil Newhouse.

Intellicopter Tours

Part of TIP’s efforts in Jerusalem include ‘intellicopter’ tours for foreign journalists visiting the country. Members of the media are given an opportunity to witness firsthand the strategic difficulties facing Israel as a result of its small size. The two-and–a-half hour tour is led by TIP’s guides who offer an analysis of Israel’s history and current security challenges. Journalists from over 300 media outlets have taken TIP’s intellicopter tour, and a large portion of news footage about the country is taken from this aerial view.Fact|date=August 2008

Media Fellowship

Every year The Israel Project offers the opportunity for 20 college and graduate school students to participate in a paid internship focused on media advocacy. The fellows undergo intensive training, working with leading journalists and communications professionals to gain the out-of-classroom experience necessary to secure post-graduate career opportunities. Throughout the nine week program, fellows participate in all aspects of The Israel Project, from writing articles for publication to conducting interviews and organizing press events.

TIP Operates offices in Washington, DC, Jerusalem and Sderot.
