Meet Yoav Ben-Tal from the Jewish Israeli delegation

My name is Yoav Ben-Tal and I am a student of Carmel Zvulun. I'm glad I was chosen to represent my school and my country in the "4 Peace" delegation because I think I have a lot to contribute to this cause and it seems to me like a lot of fun.
I was born on December 28th 1996 in Haifa and grew up in a small town called Nofit. When I was a little boy I started taking swimming lessons and this year is my 11th year of swimming, I have been in a few competitions a couple of years ago but now I'm just in it for the fun. A year and a half ago I started playing the drums and I really like it so far. I've played Tennis for three years but I was forced to quit last year because of an elbow infection.
I'm really looking forward to this peacecamp because I think it would be great to meet all of you and to go through this important experience with you. I understand that I am representing my country on this delegation and I'm very proud of it.

Meet Osnat Oknin, coordinator of the Jewish-Israeli delegation


I am Osnat Oknin. I am 50 years old, have two sons and live in Kiryat Ata, which is a city near Haifa. I have been teaching English in Carmel Zvulun for twenty-six years, and I love to work with teenagers. I think it makes me feel younger…
My hobbies are reading and taking long walks along the beautiful beaches of Israel. The sight of the sea and the sound of the waves relax me and fill me with energy.
I am looking forward to participate in Peace Camp 2012 and meet you all. In my opinion peace education is one of the most important topics in our world today.
