StandWithUs International is proud to work with the Interdisciplinary Center (IDC) Herzliya to create the premiere tool in Israel advocacy for students at the IDC's renowned Raphael Recanati International School.
▸▸▸ Our two programs at IDC are: The Ambassadors Club & The StandWithUs Israel Fellowship
▸ The Ambassadors Club
The Ambassadors Club is back for the 7th year! StandWithUs works with IDC Herzliya International School and has created the premiere tool in Israel advocacy for its students. Over 300 students, from over 30 countries, flock to a packed lecture hall each fortnight to hear the foremost leaders in the country speak on a wide spectrum of topics. From media to the economy and history to demography, participants are challenged to learn about subjects which are vital in Israel advocacy. Students are armed with the latest research and polling data and taught how to present Israels case. At the end of the year-long program, students receive an accreditation endorsed by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Most important, they return to their native country equipped with the skills necessary to present Israel's case effectively to North American, European, and other international audiences.
▸ The StandWithUs Israel Fellowship
*** Apply before November 19th for the fellowship. ***
The flagship StandWithUs Israel Fellowship brings together Israel's elite students, the future leaders and representatives of the State of Israel. Endorsed by Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the National Union of Israeli Students, this prestigious program trains outstanding students from major Israeli universities and prepares them to assume leadership roles in Israeli society. Fellows are taught by some of the brightest and most well-known leaders in academia, international affairs, public diplomacy, politics and history. Throughout the academic year, the Fellows learn to debate, run campaigns, and understand the media - important skills they can take into the world to advocate for Israel. They are also actively involved with StandWithUs International programs and become the "human face" behind the headlines as they go out into the world and break hundreds of stereotypes about Israel and Israelis.
