Welcome back to #Israel - Taglit-Volunteering Groups !!!

It’s been an intense few weeks in Israel, with the escalation involving rocket fire from Iran and the temporary suspension of most educational programs. Yet, just weeks later, we are already seeing the arrival of new #volunteers and visiting groups — a clear sign of resilience and renewed interest in understanding the region firsthand.

As lecturers focusing on #geopolitics in Israel and the Middle East, our role becomes even more critical during times like these. The situation on the ground changes rapidly, and we must continuously adapt our content to reflect the latest developments. Our goal remains the same: to provide a nuanced, well-rounded perspective that helps participants grasp the complexity of the region and understand how seemingly separate events are often interconnected.

Naturally, there's no single way to interpret the current dynamics — and that’s exactly why open dialogue and critical discussion are so valuable. I’m grateful for the opportunity to engage with the new groups arriving, and I look forward to learning together.
