This action will challenge trends of radicalization by engaging Israeli and Palestinian youth in in-depth educational programming, providing opportunities to partake in peace-building activities and accompanying them in initiating participant-led actions which will foster leadership. This action will contribute to societal changes in Israel and Palestine conducive to a climate favorable to peace-building and a just and negotiated two-state solution, promoting a culture of peace and human rights (including mutual understanding, tolerance, and trust). Focusing on youth ensures investment in the future generation of the region.
