Exchange between the Municipality of Jerusalem and the Hochsauerlandkreis
For more than 40 years the successful youth exchange programme between the Hochsauerlandkreis and the International Relations and Exchange Division in Jerusalem Municipality has been taking place.
Even during the difficult times in Jerusalem, during the last 50 years of German-Israeli relations, this unique programme has been developed in a very positive way and has led to warm and lasting friendships and good relationships between the youth of our two nations..
This year's reciprocal visit to Jerusalem was postponed due to the tensions in Israel, after the summer conflict in Gaza. We were delighted when the decision was taken to hold the exchange at the end of 2014 and welcome in the New Year in Jerusalem, holy to the 3 monotheistic faiths.
The Israeli participants in the youth exchange to Hochsauerland were happy to meet their new friends again and to take part in a number of joint activities, which foster understanding between our two peoples.
We look forward to the continuation of this wonderful exchange, and the many others which take place each year between Jerusalem and Germany and we thank the Jerusalem Foundation for their support of these projects.
