Taglit, known as Birthright Israel, is a tourism organization that offers Jewish adults between the ages of 18 and 32 the opportunity to visit Israel.
Birthright Israel was founded in 1999.

Thousands of trips, ranging by category across the spectrum of diaspora communities from 68 countries, have been carried out by the organization.
During the coronavirus pandemic, the trips were halted for the summer 2020 season, but were able to return the following summer.
