Gevim Group
"Gevim" (Hebrew) are formations in the rock containing water, mostly found in the desert.
Some cultures see water as a symbol of emotions.
Our experience shows that the mediation process enables the containment of the parties' emotions,
mostly in a “desert” of anger and distrust.
Gevim Group was established at 1996 as a Mediation center,
in order to develop and implement mediation as a tool and a way of life in the Israeli society.
The center forms a unique and professional cornerstone in the field of mediation and leads the
transformative approach of mediation in Israel.
Our highly qualified team includes approximately 100 mediators and coaches,
with a variety of professional backgrounds including law, business, psychology and education.
