The youth shared their stories and explained about their life under occupation in Palestine to the Norwegian students, in various ways, with presentations, chatting, free talks and games. This is in addition to creating friendships and develop personal relations together.

They mostly interacted with the Global Studies students, in addition to other students and their families and friends. The Global Studies students, in turn, visited Palestine, in a program arranged by the JAI, a week after from the 8th to the 19th of February 2016.
