04.06.2009
The Jewish Agency for Israel held an educational fair for Jewish young people of student age in Dnepropetrovsk. The fair was called "Your Prospects," and was held on the premises of the Jewish youth club "Campus," working under the auspices of the Jewish Agency.
The fair presented four programs: "Taglit," "Masa," trips to Poland and summer camps. Two of them, "Taglit" and summer camps, can be attributed rather to expanding horizons in tourist and entertaining format, visiting places
associated with the Holocaust on the territory of the Republic of Poland, to the development of outlook and national identity, and the program "Masa" is the
non-formal education in its pure form, providing education, courses, trainings in various areas over several months. The fair was attended by 66 boys and girls who are interested in educational projects of the Jewish Agency, of which more than 50 people registered for one of the programs.
The success of the Educational Fair "Your Prospects," carried out by the JAFI, became possible due to the participation of a new generation of madrichim, who have completed training on the "Lechet" program, going to become the leading experts on Jewish Zionist and non-formal education in the cities of the region.
