Admission- How it Works: From all of us at Engage In Palestine, we thank you for applying to volunteer, intern, or study Arabic in the city of Hebron, West Bank, Palestine. We are looking forward to welcoming you into our family. Our outstanding team will do all possible to ensure that you have a enjoyable and memorable stay.

As an international volunteer, intern, or Arabic student at Engage In Palestine you will be able to enjoy many exciting opportunities when you arrive in Palestine. All of our programs are designed to allow you to engage fully with the Palestinian culture, forge strong relationships, and challenge yourself.

As a volunteer, intern, or Arabic student, you will be making important contributions to the Palestinian community. While embracing a new lifestyle, you will also be meeting plenty of new people (both Palestinians and other internationals).
