Open to rabbinical, cantorial and Jewish education students spending their year in Israel and their partners.
Join T’ruah to learn about the situation in Gaza. Why have tens of thousands of Palestinians been marching on the Gaza separation fence every Friday since March? How has Israel responded and with what consequences? Is Gaza still occupied by Israel, even though the Gaza settlements were dismantled in the 2005 Disengagement? What is the humanitarian situation there, and how is it related to the political situation? And what prospects exist for improving the situation?
