Feedback received from the workshop’s alumni:

 

■    "Thanks to the CIC Public Diplomacy Workshop group for a wonderful workshop which
       was very helpful in many ways .

 

■    'It was fun, I learned many things, and met new people. I learned about different ways of
       seeing the term called "Public Diplomacy", and about different techniques in the art of
       conveying a message. The man and women who took part in this workshop were indeed
       brilliant, and now they will be able to use their various abilities to shape a better image of 
       Israel. Hopefully, along side with that, they will continue in their contribution to Israel's social
       and political sphere."
