Exploring Palestinian Culture and Law

I spent two weeks in Hebron, Palestine, and the experience was unforgettable. The people here are incredibly welcoming, and their kindness is something I’ll never forget. I’ve learned so much about Palestinian culture, picked up some of the language, and seen how their legal system works, which is very different from what I know in the UK.

During the program, we met local Palestinian lawyers and learned about their jobs. We also visited courts to watch how cases are handled and spoke with different NGOs and human rights groups. This was an eye opening experience, helping us see how the law is put into action and how these groups support the community.

I felt safe throughout my time here. Palestine, and Hebron in particular, is beautiful, and I felt secure and always welcomed. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to discover the true beauty of Palestine and see its unique legal system.
