actually I don’t have any specific expectations but I do want to have fun and hopefully make some new friends…! What would happen there is, for sure arguments ans learning to know and respect each other… there aren’t really things that I want to achieve and I would like to take home with me is a great experience and great memories! 3. I really expect us (all) to respect everybody no matter what they think or say and to be nice to each other even though we don’t really “like” him\her… 4. as for me I will participate in every activity… and I’ll try to express my personal opinions and creative side…

1- What are your expectations this encounter? What do you think will happen
there?
Every one comes to this encounter with his notions, ideas and his unique
background.
Naturally, I expect to hear there various opinions and perceptions on the
discussed issues. Every participant will try to convince the others with his
opinion; some may agree with him, others may not. It depends on the argument
and the supporting details that every one will present in the discussion,
what's important, I personally want to make a change to the other
participants regarding the different issues that discussed.

2- Is there anything you would want to achieve there? What would you want
learn and take home from there?
I want to raise the awareness of the participants to the Arab of Israel
problems. Political, social and economic
I want to know a lot of things about the problems of other people who live
in different countries and how do they deal with them.

3- What do you expect from the other participants, students as well as
adults?
I expect from the other participants to understand my case and to be
sympathetic and to present me ways from their own experience dealing with
our common problems.

4- What will be your participate in all activities and try to develop
relationships with the other participants in order to get a better
understanding to their issues.

It is the first time that I take part in a peace camp. However, I have already got a lot of information what we are going to do in Rechberg.
There will be many interesting workshops and I think all our students are very creative, so these workshops will be a great success and much fun for both students and adults.

We are four different groups this time and I have never had the opportunity to meet people from the Arab or Israeli culture so far.
I hope I can learn a lot about the three different cultures and identities.

I am very optimistic about how things in this camp will develop. After having read all the participants' expectations I am convinced that we will make lots of positive experiences. Of course, we all have to be tolerant and accept different opinions.
I expect these 10 days to be a great enrichment in every respect.

If there should be any problems, I will try to help all participants, especially the students. In addition to that I hope I can win the participants' confidence.

1. What are your expectations from this encounter? What do you think will happen there? What would you personally want to happen there?I think all the participants will have a lot of fun doing all the funny workshops, and it will also be very interesting to meet so many new people again…

2. Is there anything you would want to achieve there? What would you want to learn and take home from there?
I hope that I will win a lot of new friends, like in the first camps…
I really hope that we will become as good friends as the participants in the first camp!! And I am really confident that this will happen! ;)


3. What do you expect from the other participants, students as well as adults?
I don’t expect anything, I just hope that we will have a lot of fun during those 10 days…


4. What will be your personal contribution to make this encounter successful?
I will do everything that is possible to make this as great as the last camps and I really look forward to get to know all the participants!!

As some of you probably know it is not the first time for me to be a participant of the peace camp. I was able to participate in Rechber last year and I also had the great opportunity to travel to Israel this spring. Both peace camps were fabulous experiences for me and I do expect the next one - peace camp 2005 in Rechberg - will be so as well.

I hope to meet young people who are as open-minded, tolerant and committed as the former participants. I have already got to know a lot about Arab and Jewish culture, religion and history, which are main parts of their identities, however, I am sure there is much more for me to learn and so I am happy to be able to participate again.

Furthermore, I think it is a great advantage that this time also a group from Slovenia takes part. We live very close to each other, but in my opinion we know far too little about each other's identity.

I am ready to help or assist whenever or wherever help is needed. Above all, I am ready to be a good listener, particularly for the young participants.

I am very much looking forward to meeting all of you (some of you again!),

Yours,
Heidi (Austrian team)
