The Palestine trip will allow the participants to research and experience the social, economic and political situation of Palestinians through visiting the West Bank, Gaza and Palestinian communities living in Haifa, Nazareth and the Galilee. Through the trip, the participants will experience and research issues like settlements and their impact on Palestinians, the current situation in the refugee camps, political participation of the Palestinian people, ongoing human rights violations, and issues effecting the youth, gender and education. Participants are encouraged to apply early as we anticipate competition for the 15 spots on each trip. All participants will be expected to lecture and write to newspapers about their experiences in Gaza and the West Bank, in addition to presenting and submitting a paper at our national convention in October. Anyone may apply through completing application process.
All applications are subject to approval by the selection committee.
