Global
Experience
1. Jerusalem
Your program begins in Jerusalem,
where we’ll lay the groundwork for a
thought-provoking semester abroad
with an orientation and two introductory
courses. Jerusalem is central to various
religious traditions and offers a rich culture.

Next, you’ll travel to Nepal, starting with
two weeks in the capital city. Here, you’ll

while acclimating to the region and

With 3 weeks in Israel and 10 weeks in Nepal,
you’ll add new layers to your global view of
development and social justice with every stop
on your journey. HebrewU’s partner in Nepal,
Tevel b’Tzedek, will coordinate your program
and facilitate your field experience in the
local communities. Tevel has been operating
community-based sustainable development
projects in rural Nepal for over a decade.
They have honed a unique model focused
on cultivating community and integrating
volunteers into a rich intercultural environment.
