Injaz was founded as a non-profit organization in 2008 at the behest of the National Council of Arab Mayors in response to the under development and chronic dependence of Israel’s Arab municipalities on the federal government, as well as to the unsatisfactory internal professional capacity of municipal operations and personnel.

Injaz has since that time become a highly respected and trusted advocate for Arab municipalities and has worked directly or indirectly with more than 60 of the 85 Arab municipalities throughout Israel.  Additionally, the federal government is increasingly turning to Injaz to offer its services to Arab towns, since it has seen real progress being made, which benefits both the Arab community and the country overall.
