ISRAEL
VOLUNTARY
BRIDGE IN BRITAIN 2001 (January-July 2001)
The Bridge scheme was first launched in 1961 and annual
parties have travelled out to Israel since then. Among
the hundreds of school-leavers who have taken part in
Bridge, we are proud to include personalities as disparate
as Anna Ford of BBC TV; Gerald Corbett, Chief Exec. of
Railtrack; Minette Walters, the crime writer; Ian Black,
Diplomatic Editor of The Guardian and Elisabeth Hoodless,
Chief Exec. of Community Service Volunteers.
Bridge
2001 will run from approx. mid-January to July 2001. The
schedule will include several segments: a working place
on a kibbutz (collective farm); two months community service
in a development town/Israeli new town; work in a northern
Israeli moshav (smallholders' co-operative); contact with
the many communities constituting modern Israel including
Jews - religious and secular, Sabra Israelis and immigrants
from Russia, Ethiopia and other places, some of the 35
Christian denominations, Moslems and members of the varied
Arab communities in Israel; seminars and organised tours;
free time to explore Jordan and Egypt; experience of an
archaeological dig - an optional extra - at the participant's
expense.
The
application procedure is very simple. All applicants are
expected to submit: 1. An essay, minimum 400 words, explaining
reasons for wishing to spend time in Israel. This must
be accompanied by 2. A hand-written covering letter. 3.
A curriculum vitae including date of birth, address, home
telephone number, religion, academic achievements, interests
and future plans. 4. Two passport-size photos. 5. Two
references - one academic, one personal. Your written
submission should be with us by July 1 2000. Thereafter,
we will shortlist several dozen applicants for interview.
These interviews will be conducted in mid-to-late July
at our office which is situated in North West London.
If you are chosen for the programme, you will receive
a telephone call and a letter of invitation near to the
end of August 2000. The award winning party, a group of
up to 12 participants, will then leave for Israel in January
2001. Throughout the period in Israel the group will have
the informal back-up of specialist co-ordinators.
Just
a few additional points: a. You must be 18 years of age,
i.e. a legal adult, by the time of your departure for
Israel. b. You must be in good physical and mental health.
A medical certificate will be necessary if you are selected.
c. We only offer places to British applicants or to individuals
permanently resident in the UK. The Programme is of course
open to everyone, irrespective of race, religious creed
or sex. d. You do not need to speak Hebrew or Arabic,
nor need you have a strong linguistic flair. e. BUT it
is only worth applying if you have an enquiring disposition;
are eager to explore "strange and exotic" parts of the
world; and you understand fully that the programme will
be quite demanding, presenting you with a series of challenging
placements in Israel and the Arab world. f. Unlike many
of the other top Gap placements where applicants have
to raise a stake of many thousands of pounds, a Bridge
place represents a heavily sponsored scholarship place
in Israel. g. F.O.I.E.T. guarantees that any applicant
shortlisted for interview - but unsuccessful - will be
found an unsponsored place on kibbutz.
It will be good to hear further from you. John D A Levy,
