UNESCO to Offer Courses to Journalists

Gary Fitleberg, December 22, 2004

The UN Educational and Scientific Organization (UNESCO) will offer a course next month in Arabic for Israeli journalists and one in Hebrew for Arab "Palestinian" journalists.

The course for the Israelis will take place in the Western Galilee Academic College campus, and for the Arab "Palestinians" at Bir Zeit University.

The 100-hour course, almost entirely subsidized by UNESCO, will cost participants NIS 250. It will teach basic literary Hebrew and Arabic to participants, along with key concepts in Arab "Palestinian" and Israeli communication.
