This is way more than just a trip to Israel,
it's a journey of a lifetime!
After a nearly three year hiatus, Hillel Milwaukee is yet again offering its Side By Side Fellowship and Trip to Israel!
This trip is open to BOTH UW-Milwaukee (UWM) and Marquette University Undergraduate Student Leaders.
The Side By Side Fellowship and Trip to Israel is more than just a trip. It is an opportunity for UWM and Marquette University's undergraduate student leaders to help create their own Israel experience through a deep dive into Israel and the Palestinian territories.
This Fellowship and trip brings Jewish and non-Jewish UWM and Marquette University undergraduate student leaders together and then 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.
Our Side by Side trip dates are May 23 - June 3, 2022
Eligibility:
NO PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE NEEDED!
MANDATORY Requirements:
*Participation in 3 pre-trip orientations which will take place Thursday, March 31, Tuesday, April 12, and Thursday, May 5 from 5 - 6:30 pm.
