On the Coexistence Track, you will take classes on issues relating to Arab-Jewish coexistence in order to fully understand what you will encounter during volunteering and in life in the neighborhood. Special seminars will offer instruction on dealing with sensitive topics and disputes in a diverse city.
 
You will go on tours of different areas of Jaffa in order to explore its history and diversity, and hear from guest speakers who will talk about their own experiences that relate to Coexistence in Jaffa. You will also learn about modern Israel and different aspects of Israeli society, with a strong focus on Jaffa.

And starting in 2011, Tikkun Olam is opening it's doors to Israeli volunteers, greatly enhancing the overall experience of all our participants. Classes on Jewish Identity and Israeli Culture take on a whole new meaning when you have Israeli's to share their unique perspectives and thoughts. And what better way to practice your Hebrew than to live with native speakers!
