"A delegation of influential American Latino leaders from across the United States is currently in Israel with Project Interchange, a non-profit institute of the American Jewish Committee, which regularly brings prominent figures to Israel for week-long educational visits. The group will gain exposure to various dimensions of Israeli society, and in particular, to Israel’s highly diverse and technologically savvy citizenry, which has helped fuel and sustain the country’s rapid economic growth.
Israel National News spoke to project chair Bob Peckar.
'The purpose of the trip is to give them [the Latino leaders] a fair and not-propagandized experience of the beauty of Israel,' said Peckar. 'They will come home to the U.S. with a real appreciation of Israel and will share that with their constituents.'"
