THE UNION OF JEWISH STUDENTS
Defending your rights and helping to create a community on your campus
UJS Birthright -Aug 12th - Aug 22nd (Trip Option 2)
This programme will offer a specific insight into campus issues both in Israel and the UK. How has Israel responded to academic boycotting? Is there anti-semitism on campus in Israel? How do students in S’derot feel? What are the problems Israel faces in the media? The programme will include meetings with students, academics and government representatives and will equip participants with the tools to combat ignorance and prejudice on UK campuses.

*Age 20-26
