This is way more than just a trip to Israel,
it's a journey of a lifetime!
For the third year, Hillel Milwaukee is offering its Side By Side Mission Trip to Israel!
*NEW* THIS YEAR: This trip is open to BOTH UW-Milwaukee (UWM) and Marquette University Student Leaders.
The Side By Side Mission to Israel is more than just a trip. It is an opportunity for UWM and Marquette University's student leaders, to help create their own Israel experience through a deep dive into Israel and the Palestinian territories.
This mission brings Jewish and non-Jewish UWM and Marquette University student leaders to the region to educate them about Israel and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: shining an international light on the complexities and nuance, in an immersive and experiential way. Participants will hear from Israel's most innovative industry leaders, meet with Palestinian activists, tour Israel and Palestinian territories and so much more!
We believe that by presenting the students with the opportunity to explore and develop their own Israel connections, those students will be empowered to bring it back to campus and continue to grow as vibrant, committed leaders in our community.
This year's Side by Side Mission dates are May 18 – 28, 2020
Application timeline is October 4, 2019
