By Yair, Germany:
I stayed at Study in Palestine in Hebron for 5 days and worked as part of the Health and Medical Program. During my time there, I had the valuable opportunity to learn about the health conditions of refugee families in the region. Visiting the refugee camps and local hospitals was a truly eye-opening and meaningful experience that gave me deeper insight into the challenges faced by these communities.
Communication was very good but communication regarding travel and daily schedules with the volunteers can be improved. More clear coordination would make the experience smoother and more organized.
Overall, I had a very rewarding experience and would definitely recommend the program to others who are interested in health, humanitarian work, and learning about Palestinian society.
What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
Refugee camp\ family with children get water once every seven days.
Pros
- discovering desperate people who are neglected by the international media
