Eurovision Fans !
Here is your only opportunity to get all the behind-the-scenes gossip at Eurovision. Aleph Melbourne, together with the Embassy of Israel, presents Alon Amir, the Israeli author of the book “Three Minutes of Eternity” this Tuesday 19 June for an exclusive up close Q&A with the world’s leading Eurovision expert. Ask him anything you always wanted to know about Eurovision.
Alon Amir took part in many Eurovision competitions. He served as the Head of the Press for the Israeli delegation (2009, 2012, 2013, and 2016) as well as for the Slovak (2011) and Belarussian delegations (2005). In addition, he served as an international juror numerous times in national finals in Sweden, Malta, Estonia, Bulgaria, Norway and Finland.
Alon has worked with some of the leading singers and performers in Israel, helping them to build a career and an audience. He created several TV segments with his twin brother on Israeli TV and has written for several newspapers and leading web sites. He also has had his own radio show (despite his voice).

The Gen17 Preliminary Findings indicate LGBTIQ people in the Jewish community are marginalised and lack acceptance.
The GEN17 Australian Jewish Community Survey – Preliminary Findings have been released and can be viewed here.
The preliminary findings offer no insight into the number of same-sex attracted or gender diverse people in the Jewish community.
They do identify that LGBTIQ people are a marginalised demographic that a small section of the community has concern for.
Hopefully subsequent analysis of the Gen17 data will offer greater insights in this area.
The following sections have been extracted from the report.
