Ono Book Launch “The Light at the Edge”: From Injury to Repair after October 7th

Ono Academic College held an inspiring and thoughtful launch event for the book The Light at the Edge: From Injury and Consolation to Repair, by Prof. Tova Hartman and Yehuda Shochat, at its Jerusalem Campus. The evening explored the human and social journey from rupture to hope, and the possibility of finding meaning, responsibility, and repair in the aftermath of pain and trauma, especially after the events of October 7,2023.

Remarks were delivered by Adv. Oshrat Shoham, Prof. Tova Hartman, Dean of the School of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences and Prof. Yuval Elbashan, Dean of Ono’s Multicultural Campuses, each offering a distinct and compelling perspective on consolation, moral choice, and the pursuit of repair. The event reflected Ono’s ongoing commitment to deep, values-driven public discourse that speaks directly to the complexities of contemporary Israeli society.
