Two-day seminars of mediated dialogue for thousands of Jewish and Israeli Arab high school students each year. The sessions are designed to break through barriers of preconception, mistrust and misunderstanding, as well as to impart skills for open discussion of the Jewish-Arab conflict. The program consists of preparatory meetings with 10-12th graders and Givat Haviva facilitators in their separate (Arab and Jewish) classrooms, where the young people’s expectations, hopes and fears are raised and discussed. They then met their peers for a two or three-day workshop on the Givat Haviva campus.
