Israel Experience Bursaries

Each year, approximately 2,200 young British Jews visit Israel on both short (three weeks) and long (5 months to a year) Israel programmes.

UJIA awards means tested bursaries that allow hundreds of young people the opportunity to participate in the educational experience of a lifetime.

These 'Israel Experiences' are the jewel in the crown of UJIA and make us the world leader in the field. Indeed, over 50% of 16 year-olds now participate on an "Israel tour".

Our programmes are operated through the Jewish youth movements and schools with the full financial and logistical backing of UJIA and our partner, the Jewish Agency.
