MACHON MASA

Training Foreign Students For Israel Activism


WHAT IS MACHON MASA?
A program for producing aware, informed and capable Israel activist students who will return to leadership positions on campus and promote the Israel connection amongst other students.

HOW DOES MASA WORK?
By implementing educational programs, seminars and activities, we have attracted some of the best available speakers in Israel and a special staff of experienced facilitators. Over 2,000 students have participated in our numerous activities, especially our weekend conferences which attract hundreds of students from the five major Israeli Universities.

WHY ELSE IS MASA "KEY"?
It is also concerned with developing leadership and communication skills in various aspects, such as: public speaking, publicity, organizational abilities, and working with the media.

WHO IS MASA FOR?
Participation is geared primarily for students on overseas programs at Israeli universities who want to learn more about the issues behind the headlines. Machon MASA will also provide a support network after students leave Israel.
