A group of 20 students from various nationalities, who had a trip to Palestine organized by Zajel Center – Al-Najah National University in Nablus – were received by the JAI on Saturday the 30th of March 2013.
The group was briefed about the Joint Advocacy Initiative (JAI), with its advocacy work and tools, including the Olive Tree Campaign with its goals, impacts, international and local dimensions and updates.
They were then guided by the JAI into a tour within the Bethlehem area to witness land confiscation process by the Israeli government, the apartheid wall, settlements construction and expansion, as well a JAI Olive Tree Campaign field at which trees were destroyed by Israeli settlers 2 days earlier.
