“With this knowledge I hope to be inspired to make more of an impact in my community. I was inspired by the college students actions.”
Jonathan S., November 2024“It was a valuable experience that I believe will help me in advocating for and supporting the Jewish community.”
Yonatan B.,  November 2024

“This session made me proud to be Jewish.”
Avner B., November 2023“This experience helped me reflect on what’s happening in Israel and my role in it. One main takeaway for me is the idea that Judaism and your commitment to Israel looks different for each individual and no one way is correct.”
Anna K.,  November 2023

CIE’s youth engagements provide participants with insight, knowledge and context about Israel’s history, politics and/or culture.  Rather than focus solely on advocacy training or teaching defensive tactics, CIE youth engagements provide participants with in-depth information, using contemporary data points and experiential methods. Our education team works with your youth group, camp or school to create a substantial learning experience unique for your organizational needs. Past youth workshops have been with audiences ranging from 18 to 250 participants and can be coordinated to take place onsite or virtually through the use of technology.
