In preparation sessions for the workshops, both at Givat Brenner and Orthodox Nazareth high schools, there were signs of great interest from the students.
Both schools are coming to youth workshops for many years and it was apparent that the students already heard about the experience form their older colleagues.
One thing worth mentioning is that in Nazareth Orthodox school, there were many more students interested in participating than possible and a screening process was done by the teacher choosing who will attend. In Givat Brenner school, all students that wanted to participate were able to.
There were 57 participants 30 Palestinians and 27 Jews, 20 boys and 27 girls.
The participants were divided by the teachers into two working groups, each group with a Jewish and Palestinian facilitators.
We thoroughly prepared the teachers and facilitators staff of the workshop in order to advance a deep meaningful dialogue between the two groups that fosters respect.
Each school had a preparation session in their own school led by a facilitator of the School for Peace.
