January 5th
We held another successful meeting with Yoni Eshpar from UNSCO. Obviously the recent statements by President Trump about the US embassy moving were of great interest. After Yoni's presentation, the students were split into 2 groups and spent an hour in intense discussions about Jerusalem and Gaza and the best way to resolve each city's future.
January 12, 25, and February 2
We held a series of workshops to provide public speaking, debate and UN resolution reading and writing. The meetings were held at the US embassy and at a school in Tel Aviv, and were taught by lecturers from the Cohen-Idov Center for Debate and Public Speaking, as well as by Daniel Gindis. Many of the students who came to the workshops were specifically preparing for an upcoming conference in Cyprus. Each meeting had 20-30 students.
January 26-20
Students met with Ambassador Shambos at the Embassy of Cyprus. Despite terrible weather and a storm advisory warning, we had a great turnout and discussion, a week and a half before the group delegation to Cyprus.
