HaNoar HaOved VeHaLomed

Histadrut HaNoar HaOved VeHaLomed (Hebrew: הִסְתַּדְּרוּת הַנוֹעַר הַעוֹבֵד וְהַלוֹמֵד, lit. The General Federation of Students and Young Workers in Israel), sometimes abbreiviated to No'al (נוֹעַ"ל) is an Israeli youth movement, a sister movement of Habonim Dror, the Labor Zionist movement.

Along with Hashomer Hatzair of Israel, Histadrut HaNoar HaOved VeHaLomed are member of the International Falcon Movement – Socialist Education International.

The movement was founded in 1924 by youth working to defend their rights. The first name of the movement was "Hanoar HaOved" ("The Working Youth") and it was connected to the Histadrut. in 1959 it was connected with "HaTnua HaMeu'he'det" ("The United Movement") and the name was changed to HaNoar HaOved VeHaLomed.

In the 1990s, along with the decline of the kibbutz movement, HaNoar HaOved VeHalomed began re-examining the ideal life path of its members, which had always began settling kibbutzim in gar'inim after finishing their mandatory period of army service. Instead, a model started to be put forward in which bogrim ("graduates") of the movement formed small urban communes working in society, particularly in education. Today, there are about 1,000 members of HaNoar HaOved VeHalomed's Tnuat Bogrim ("Movement of Graduates") living in small communes in cities or kibbutzim and working in Israeli Society – mostly in education and the youth movement. The youth movement and the Tnuat Bogrim are called "Dror-Israel" movement, which is named after the historical "Dror" movement in Europe.
