It’s not our Grandparents’ Heritage: Gavriella and Aviel Dahan

August 04, 2022

Aviel is descended of Jews of Moroccan and Tunisian heritage. Gabriella is descended of Jews of Yemenite and Syrian heritage. With all this rich cultural and customs background, they did not feel that richness growing up. There was almost a superficial nature to the way the customs were maintained in their families. Here the young couple (joined by their infant son) talk about the struggles and beauty that they found upon internalizing this diverse heritage.


Gavriella Bigio Dahan and Aviel Dahan have two kids and live in Jerusalem. Gavriella is American-Israeli and works in the Jewish Agency's Financial Resource Development Department as a donor missions manager and is active in her local Jerusalem community. Aviel Dahan is Israeli and leads a non-profit to prevent sexual harassment called Bystander Israel and is active in social entrepreneurship.
