Take the Classroom on the Road with Tiyul B’Aretz
Imagine a road trip in Israel…for college credit. Tiyul B’Aretz is reinventing study abroad in Israel by giving students an educational experience that goes beyond the classroom walls. On Tiyul B’Aretz there is no campus, no classrooms, and no dorms or dining halls. This is learning on the road. Students spend the semester traveling to different regions and living in various communities, gaining a more hands-on and intimate experience of Israel than they ever could on a traditional study abroad program.

A program of Hazon’s friends. Eco-Israel, a 5-month residential learning program of Hava & Adam Eco-Educational farm, offers young people ages 18-30 the opportunity to immerse themselves in sustainable living.
