Congratulations to Hand in Hand on being awarded the Jerusalem Education Authority prize.

Hand in Hand currently has six schools educating over 1000 Israeli children including Muslims, Jews, Christians, Druze, Circassian, and Armenian. The schools bring children together in a framework of equality, working to break the cycle of preconceived notions, fears and misunderstandings in a way that strengthens tolerance and respect for the other.
