April 7 – About 25 Jewish and Arab planners and architects participated in a study tour in Jaffa led by Asma Agbaria. The tour was organized by the Jewish-Arab Planning Forum, which was established by graduates of the School for Peace-Arab Center for Alternative Planning change agent training courses for planners.

The tour was organized by Yishai Yotam Ben Yaakov, a graduate of the course that ended in February 2017.

During the tour, we learned about the rapid process of gentrification, aided by Jewish real estate sharks, that is taking place in the old Arab neighborhoods of Jaffa.
