The meeting between the Motzkin and Włodawa students was leading by Inbal Raz, Deputy Director of Mashmaut Center. For this meeting, each group prepared 5 representative sentences about their country, answered questions that we had wanted for the other group to know about the lives of teenagers in Israel and Poland, and also filled out a question in advance about their hobbies.

The meeting between the students proved that there are quite a few similarities between the two groups, such as hobbies and after-school activities, school lessons, and favorite foods and desserts in both countries.

At the end of the meeting, all the students were asked to choose an animal they would like to be, and while the closest zoo for teenagers in Włodawa is an hour away, the students from Motzkin were proud of the zoo in the city, a few minutes walk or drive from home.

The students from both countries participated actively and were proud to present themselves and their country, and all the participants had an interesting and empowering experience. The meeting left anticipation for the next meeting, hopefully to be held this year.
