June 10-15, 2013 - The Western Galilee Teachers Seminar: Partnership2Gesher (Bridge)

The Western Galilee Teachers Seminar

June 10-15, 2013

PARTNERSHIP2GESHER Educational Seminar is your opportunity, as an American educator, to learn, experience, and observe the Israeli educational system. Joining Israeli educators and volunteers we promise you a unique and special experience. The Western Galilee is known for its microcosms of Israeli society; not only because of the diverse culture and people, but also for its mix between the past and future. The fascinating history and rich heritage of the region can be utilized for new and ground-breaking educational initiatives in the future.

Join us as we walk together as educators on the gesher (bridge) of the past and future, on the gesher between various cultures and populations. Your contribution can help us become a strong gesher between Israel and the U.S. by creating new connections while working together, side-by-side.
