This link will take you to Yom Ha’atzmaut Activities, a site with several thought provoking activities that encourage students in the Diaspora to engage with Israel in a meaningful way. Written as full lesson plans, complete with a list of required materials and a step-by-step explanation of how to run the program, this is an excellent resource for educators. In the first activity, “Whose Declaration? Whose Independence?” participants “edit” the Israeli Declaration of Independence and discuss the values of the Jewish state. In the second activity “Israel and the Diaspora,” participants analyze the state of Jewish Israel-Diaspora relations. This resource was created by the World Union of Jewish Students, an international, pluralistic, non-partisan organisation supporting national independent Jewish student associations all over the world.
