Eli Beer is a pioneer, social entrepreneur, President and Founder of United Hatzalah of Israel. In thirty years, the organization has grown to more than 6,500 volunteers who unite together to provide immediate, life-saving care to anyone in need - regardless of race or religion.

Today Rune is working on applying contemporary developments in anthropology to rethink the way we address Nordic religion, both in terms of scholarship, and also as a reservoir of cultural knowledge for environmental activism.
