The 14-day seminar, initiated by Netzer Germany, began in Israel on March 24 and will enable the high school juniors and seniors to gain first-hand insight and the perspective that is missing from the German media’s portrayals of Israel. They will visit sites throughout the country, from Israel’s official media headquarters to the rough-and tumble south Tel Aviv and Jerusalem’s Old City. On the second leg of the trip, the Noar Telem high school students will become acquainted with Germany through the eyes of their peers, members of the Netzer Reform youth movement in Germany. A key component of the seminar will be the opportunity for the youth to become acquainted with their respective home lives and landscapes. The Passover Seder will be celebrated in Israel, with the Netzer Germany students to be hosted in the homes of the young Israeli members of Noar Telem.
