A one-week delegation to Israel and the West Bank for IPF Atid leaders.

Delegation Features:

• Field tours around the Jerusalem, West Bank, and Gaza envelope with Israel Policy Forum professionals and affiliated security experts  
• Meetings with Israeli and Palestinian thought leaders from a range of political, media, and security backgrounds
• Strategic dialogue meetings involving current and potential partner organizations, with an emphasis on next-generation change-makers  
• Workshop and planning sessions for IPF Atid future programs and initiatives

Representing IPF Atid in key meetings, delegates will emerge with a greater understanding of the on-the-ground political and security considerations related to Israeli-Palestinian affairs. They will return to North America prepared to continue initiating meaningful engagements and partnerships in support of the two-state vision.

Who can apply?

Unlike past delegations, the IPF Atid 2023 Delegation is reserved exclusively for IPF Atid lay leaders. Young professionals (ages 21-39) from across North America who are IPF Atid Steering Committee Members and co-chairs of a Charles Bronfman Conveners Summit are encouraged to apply.

Do I need to already be involved as a leader with Israel Policy Forum and IPF Atid to be considered?

Yes, this trip is reserved for IPF Atid Steering Committee Members and co-chairs of a Charles Bronfman Conveners Summit.

I’d like to attend but would need to join late or leave early. Am I still eligible?

What will the itinerary look like?

The itinerary’s meetings and travel will be demanding, with sessions scheduled to begin each day before 8:30AM and close around 10:00PM. Blocks of free time will also be built in throughout.
