The Kibbutz Alternative Kibbutz is an ever evolving, dynamic and innovative Jewish community based on the principles of equality and democracy. Each kibbutz reflects the unique needs and desires of its particular members and responds to the changing challenges of the Jewish State and the Jewish people. Project Oren Project Oren provides young adults a unique opportunity to experience kibbutz and explore Israel.
Participants live, work and study Hebrew on kibbutz.
Participants also explore their Jewish history and heritage through a rich program of lectures, workshops, and trips throughout the program. Students delve into Zionism, the peace process, Israel-Diaspora relations, the Holocaust, Jewish identity and much more. The past, present and future all come together as students discuss where they come from, who they are, and where they are going. The programs further enrich the kibbutz ulpan experience by offering specific focus topics for the longer programs. These focuses add an extra dimension to the students' kibbutz experience.
