GNRC members in Israel arranged an interfaith learning and peace building program for Jewish, Christian and Muslim youth in Israel in July 2007. The Toolkit for Ethics Education through Interfaith Learning was used to design the program.  The full report of the week long program gives an account of the planning process and the implementation of the program without discarding difficulties and lessons learned in arranging the programs. The Report brings us along on the Journey and it is an example of a Best Practice in using the Toolkit.  Click here to download the full Report of the Massa - Massar (The Journey - The Path) program in PDF format.
