Note: Before the Workshop: The participants are asked to prepare an outline (best as a PPT) for a 4-hour digital short trip that consists of two program items (e.g. a walking tour through the Armenian Quarter tour plus a talk with an activist on house demolitions, or getting to know every day life of a Palestinian family in East Jerusalem plus an introduction to Dabkeh, etc.). The outline should include a detailed itinerary of the content of the digital short trip and thoughts on how to implement it technically.
