One of the winners of a prestigious Israeli award is donating her prize winnings to three Israeli human rights organisations which defend the rights of Palestinians.
Eighty-two-year-old American Jewish Professor Evelyn Fox Keller, one of nine people who received the 2018 Dan David Prize at Tel Aviv University on Sunday night, told Haaretz newspaper she would give the money to B’Tselem, the Association for Civil Rights in Israel and Physicians for Human Rights.
According to Haaretz, the scientist said: “The moment she found out she had won the prize, she decided she could accept it only if she gave the money to organisations combating Israel’s policies toward the Palestinians.”
