Young people in Germany and Israel have diverse cultural, religious and national identities. Many of them come from families with a history of migration. They have often experienced immigration to Israel or Germany themselves. The exchange program "Your Story Moves – Encounters of Young People in Migration Societies" aims at deepening the sensitivity for this great variety of narratives and migration biographies in both countries. Moreover, the program wishes to actively recognize and explicitly include this diversity into the German-Israeli discourse, while at the same time respecting the historically strong connection between the two countries.The program has been developed by ConAct – Coordination Center German-Israeli Youth Exchange and the Israeli Youth Exchange Authority in cooperation with the Federation of Alevi Youth in Germany and the Bar-Ilan University in Israel.
