Yahel Israel

One of the core ideas behind Yahel is that meaningful engagement requires sitting with complexity.

During a recent Jerusalem-area seminar, we were joined by , as fellows spent the day exploring the realities of Israeli and Palestinian life through conversations and site visits. From Gush Etzion to Roots, a joint Israeli-Palestinian initiative, they encountered perspectives that challenged assumptions, raised difficult questions, and resisted easy answers.

Experiences like these are woven throughout the fellowship, alongside nine months of volunteer service in communities across Israel.

Applications for the 2026–27 Yahel Fellowship have been extended to June 30. Follow the link in the first comment for more info!
