GNRC members in Israel arranged an interfaith learning and peace building program for Jewish, Christian and Muslim youth in Israel in July 2007. The Toolkit for Ethics Education through Interfaith Learning was used to design the program. The full report of the week long program gives an account of the planning process and the implementation of the program without discarding difficulties and lessons learned in arranging the programs. The Report brings us along on the Journey and it is an example of a Best Practice in using the Toolkit.

The Draft Toolkit on Interfaith Learning and Ethics Education was used at a workshop arranged in Geneva in January 2006. Two youth members of the Interfaith Council explored the possibilities of using the toolkit in various youth settings in their regions. The Report from the workshop gives ideas for others who would like to make use of the material. A special thanks to Nour and Emanuel for sharing their experiences and encouraging others to make use of the toolkit in working with ethics and values.
