It is a very critical time to travel to the region to see the political and social reality on the ground as the Oslo peace process will effectively end its 5-year interim period in May 1999. Little progress has been made and hope for the peace seems as distant as ever. Meet with members of progressive joint Israeli-Palestinian organizations, women's groups, the Palestinian National Authority officials, Israeli government officials, religious and community leaders, intellectuals, students, and human rights activists.
Witness lives under the occupation in Gaza, West Bank, and Golan Heights.
Travel to Negev to learn about the economic, cultural and social issues in Bedouin communities. Payments by MasterCard or Visa are welcome. This delegation will be as diverse as possible in terms of race, age, and life experiences. We strongly urge people of color to apply. A limited number of partial scholarship are available for qualified low-income participants.
