About the Magazine:

The Israeli Chapter of the Globalist was founded by Roy Mil at the Hebrew University in 2005 and was one Global21′s first chapters to be established. The Jerusalem Globalist released three issues before disbanding for a couple of years and was re-established at the Hebrew University in November of 2009. The fourth issue came out during the Fall of 2010 under the new board.

In the upcoming year, the primary goal of the new Jerusalem Globalist is to provide a more nuanced understanding of local and regional realities through field journalism. The Globalist team hopes to be a source for a more complete coverage of global events and current affairs on campus.
