Established in 1998, Kolech is the first Orthodox feminist organization in Israel. Kolech aims to increase public awareness and bring about change in Israeli society by: promoting gender equality and mutual respect between men and women; encouraging equal opportunities for women in the public arena; initiating equal opportunity legislation; advancing women's rights and women’s leadership in religious andhalakhic spheres; advocating greater equality for women in matters of personal status, such as marriage and divorce; and engaging in an uncompromising battle against all forms of gender violence.
