Hevreh’s 10-Day Behind the Scenes Tour of Israel: An Exploration of Religion, Politics, and Economics…and Food

Experience Israel today.  Whether you spent time in Israel five months ago, 15 years ago, or this is your first time, there is always something new to experience in Israel.  Israel as a young nation is constantly changing, with new developments that seem to come daily.  On this trip, participants will have the opportunity to explore Israel as she is, today, by learning from the multiple voices who make Israel both the amazing and challenging place that it is.

Registration is open exclusively to Hevreh members until May 15, 2017, at which point we will open any remaining spots to the broader community.
