Israel & Co offers trips to motivated and organized graduate students with an interest in peacebuilding.
This is an opportunity for a fully-funded 7-10 day trip to Israel with an entire student group, which can be organized independently or by a professor. By connecting participants with organizations in Israel that are of interest to them, iTrek is a great experience to meet with leaders in various fields.
