imagine: 2018 in Palestine - Submissions are in!

The last of the essay submissions for the imagine: 2018 contest in Palestine are in! 

The Palestinian Ministry of Education, with whom OneVoice Palestine is partnering to adminsiter the contest, received almost 2000 essays in total, from students aged 13-17 at public, private, and UNRWA schools throughout the West Bank. 

Representatives from the Minsitry noted that it is amazing that children responded with such passion to the contest, given the difficult situation on the ground these past few months.  They were asked to write about a vision of peace and independence that they have never experienced for themselves.

OneVoice will be announcing the 50 winning essayists later in the spring. 

In the mean time, on the Israeli side, OneVoice Israel is facilitating a similar contest for Israeli schools.
