Objectives

• To engage equally represented groups of Jewish American, Jewish Israeli, Arab Israeli, and Palestinian high school students, who are entering their senior year, in a series of multicultural seminars, dialogues, simulation games, performances, presentations, and encounters with experts in relevant fields.
• To develop leadership and communication skills among participants.
• To enrich these dialogues while traveling through San Diego, CA, home of the Jewish Americans, and Israel, visiting and exploring sites significant to all groups.
• To provide opportunities for maintaining relationships and continuing dialogue between the participants after the trip.
• To encourage participants to share their experiences and knowledge at community events and public forums.
• To allow participants to confront contemporary and historical issues facing Jews, Muslims, and Christians, in an environment that acknowledges similarities and differences, and which promotes recognition and acceptance of their cultures.
• To build long term connections and relationships between the participants themselves, their families, and their communities.
• To promote coexistence and understanding between individuals of different backgrounds, cultures, and religions.
