Journey for Justice 2017 - Palestine(17세에서 25세까지 최대 30세까지..)

17세에서 25세(30세까지 가능)에 해당하는 분들을 위해 프로그램하나 추천드립니다. 

평화를 생각하는 외국 청년들과의 만남과 청년리더십들의 네트워크를 만드는데 아주 좋은 일정이 되리라 생각됩니다. 만남과 학습여행을 계획하시는 분들에게 좋을 것 같습니다.

 

팔레스타인에서 일주일 700불(항공료 별도) 프로그램입니다. 세계 각국의 청년들이 모이는 것으로 팔레스타인의 현실(단체, 현장 방문 등)에 대한 이해 뿐만 아니라 성지 방문 등을 통한 평화순례를 함께하는 프로그램입니다. 

숙식과 모든 비용을 포함해 현지 700불이면 대단히 저렴한 비용으로 생각됩니다. 팔레스타인까지의 비행기 삯은 러시아항공이나 프랑스항공을 이용하면 90만원대에서 구할 수 있고요. YMCA 추천을 통해 참여가 가능합니다.
