2011 Beyond Bridges: Israel-Palestine Program

The Center for Transformative Education, a new educational initiative that offers empowering educational programs to help transform societies into their potential, is seeking motivated student leaders for this one-of-a-kind summer program, Beyond Bridges: Israel-Palestine (BB:IP).
 
BB:IP takes undergraduate/graduate students of all backgrounds to Israel and Palestine for a three-week study course. Run through the University of San Francisco (USF), this accredited program challenges its participants to see the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from different angles, engaging narratives often absent or underrepresented in mainstream discourse. Based in Jerusalem, students meet with scholars and activists while traveling to Haifa, Bethlehem, Tel Aviv, Hebron, and beyond. From visits to Israel's Independence Hall to Palestine's Muqata'a, from meetings with Jewish Israeli settlers to Palestinian refugees, this summer program is extraordinary.  The program will run from June 12 to July 3, 2011.
 
More information about the program and the BB:IP application can be found on our website.
