Playing Fair, Leading Peace

Bringing FairPlay into the classroom! Dozens of students from diverse backgrounds - Jewish and Arab, secular and religious, from universities and colleges around the country - undergo leadership building as well as training in the Peres Center's Peace Education through Sports methodologies. The students then get hands-on experience, going in to schools and working with Jewish and Arab schoolchildren, who in their "twinned" groups learn the rules of FairPlay, meet their friends from the "other side" on the sports field, and unite as one team.
