Established in 1969 as a vehicle for the social, economic and scientific transformation of the Negev, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev is a world-renowned institute of research and higher learning with 17,000 students at its campuses in Beer-Sheva, Sede Boqer and Eilat. BGU builds bridges of peace between Israel and its neighbors through cooperation
in science, research and development. It is the link between academia and industry, Israel and the developing world. BGU is a university with a conscience, where the highest academic and scientific standards are integrated with community involvement, and where the pioneering spirit of discovery
flourishes, fulfilling the dream of David Ben-Gurion, Israel’s first prime minister, to make the desert bloom.
Founded 36 years ago, AABGU is a partner in the University’s mission to develop the Negev and build a leading educational institution in the desert. A nonprofit organization with its national headquarters in New York City and 10 regional offices throughout the United States, AABGU plays a vital role in helping BGU fulfill its unique responsibility to
develop the bold new vision for the Negev, the focus of the future of Israel and the world.
