Welcome to ICTR website Israeli Center for Third Sector Research (ICTR )was established at the Ben- Gurion University of the Negev in 1997 in order to conduct and promote Academic Research and study on Civil Society, the Third Sector, and related fields in Israel. ICTR is a multi- and inter-disciplinary center serving researchers and students from academic disciplines, universities and colleges. ICTR works in close cooperation with research centers and associations around the world. At the outset ICTR has set four major goals for its operation: Develop policy-relevant knowledge of the nature, structure and societal role of Israel’s Third Sector. Promote the study of the Third Sector and related subjects as a legitimate multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary academic field. Engage in policy analysis on the Third Sector and to make Third Sector issues a focus of the public agenda. Create a resource center and database on Israel’s Third Sector and to make it available to researchers, policy makers and professionals in the field. Since its inception ICTR is successfully addressing all four of its goals
