Chen Kotler Abrams
Educator, peace activist and resident of Kibbutz Kfar Aza
About Chen:
Chen is a resident of Kibbutz Kfar Aza in the south of Israel, only 3 miles from the Gaza trip. Before the devastation of Kfar Aza in the October 7th massacre, Chen regularly received international delegations and educated them on kibbutz life, the security situation in the South and her eventual hopes for peace with the Palestinians. After Kibbutz Kfar Aza was attacked, Chen has been instrumental in fundraising and raising awareness for the rebuilding of Kfar Aza. Chen has rallied international support for Kfar Aza, meeting with figures like Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump to highlight the plight of Kfar Aza’s residents.
