Towards the end of the programs in Israel, the participants are about to go back to their communities around the world, where they will share their special experience with friends on the one hand, and will be expected to represent Israel in front of political opponents on the other hand. On this day we wish to provide the participants with the tools for promoting MASA programs in Israel, as well as providing them with the tools for representing Israel and dealing with complicated political issues.
After a visit to either the Situation Room in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Supreme Court and the government campus or the security fence, Mashkuchit staff will lead a workshop on "My Personal Experience in Israel". Following the workshop, we will hear a lecture by Ehud Yaari, "Mr. Security" of the Israeli media, about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Minister Yitzhak Herzog will then speak on Israel's Coping with the rise of Anti-Semitism in the World. After dinner, we will join a lecture about promoting MASA programs in the world by Lior Shmueli. At the end of the day, the participants will receive a gift and an information booklet.
