Advanced Coexistence Program
In 2003-2004, Seeds of Peace has launched something at the Center unlike anything ever done before. In fact, what is happening at the Center isn’t happening anywhere else — not at this scale and not with such a variety of groups and projects, in so many locations and with participants from so many places. Two hundred Israeli and Palestinian Seeds are coming together for weekly meetings as part of the Advanced Coexistence Program—they are meeting in 12 different groups in four different locations from dozens of cities all over Israel, both sides of Jerusalem, and the West Bank.

Seasonal Seminars
Starting in 1997, Seeds of Peace has organized winter seminar programs to coincide with the school holidays around the New Year. These intensive, four-day programs have involved over 150 Israeli, Palestinian and Jordanian youth. The seminars combine athletics, music and art, and focused discussions among the youth, looking at issues that they face at home. The seminars also are designed to allow the youth to teach each other about each others culture, family and identity in a more focused way than is available at the camp. Additionally, Seeds of Peace organizes school presentations and tours for the youth during the seminar.
