The Peacebuilder’s Pilgrimage to the Holy Land is an immersive learning journey through the Occupied Palestinian Territories and Israel, led by experienced peacebuilding practitioners. This unique pilgrimage goes beyond traditional site-seeing to engage deeply with the present-day realities on the ground, allowing participants to witness firsthand the efforts for peace and justice in a deeply divided region.
