Students from Israel and Palestine sat together at a local art studio in Encinitas, California, USA, one day last summer, drawing portraits of one another and learning how to live in peace. Every year, Hands of Peace brings students to Chicago, Illinois, and San Diego, California, USA, to join local youths from various religious backgrounds for 18 days of dialogue and team-building exercises. Rotary members host the students, organize activities like the art workshop, and lend financial support.
