In a world of immense diversity, our identities often give rise to conflicts. Come and see how these forces are at work in one of the most tense regions of the planet and how we can use what they are learning to transform conflicts in our own schools, neighborhoods, and culture.

Hand in Hand, founded in 1997, is dedicated to promoting social change and mutual understanding between Israel’s Jewish and Arab citizens through bilingual, multicultural schools. This year over 1000 students are attending its four accredited and integrated public schools in Israel. For more information, please see www.handinhandk12.org
