Metsulot was founded on the principle that experiencing diving firsthand offers a transformative glimpse into the subaquatic world, potentially altering one’s perspective on terrestrial life. This shift in awareness opens up new possibilities, revealing vast, unexplored territories within the diving community that are currently beyond the reach of most people.
Metsulot stands out as an innovative initiative in both Israeli and global diving communities. Its mission is to leverage scuba diving as a tool for personal development, targeting youth, at-risk individuals, and those with special needs. The program aims to cultivate essential life skills such as leadership, resilience, effective communication, and goal-setting. By immersing participants in the underwater world, Metsulot not only enhances their ability to overcome life’s obstacles and achieve personal objectives but also fosters a deeper appreciation for marine ecosystems. This unique approach serves a dual purpose: empowering individuals while simultaneously promoting environmental awareness and instigating positive societal change in Israel.
Metsulot was established in 2020 by Boaz Giladi, an educator and diving instructor who assembled a team of like-minded diving instructors and educators. They share a common belief in diving’s
transformative potential. Giladi reflects, “My experience as a diving instructor revealed that standard training programs, while skill-focused, often lack depth in educational content. I’ve witnessed countless times how encountering the underwater world sparks awe, wonder, and personal empowerment. However, these profound feelings typically faded after the brief training period, with many divers failing to integrate sea exploration into their regular lives.”
This disconnect was particularly pronounced among teenagers, partly due to the high costs associated with diving. Metsulot aims to bridge this gap, making the life-altering benefits of diving accessible to young people. The organization strives to introduce youth to the unique strengths and capabilities that the world of diving can unlock, fostering long-term personal growth and connection with the marine environment.
