EAPPI: The World Council of Churches' Training Camp for Anti-Israel Advocacy


(NGO Monitor) The Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI), the World Council of Churches' (WCC) flagship project on the Arab-Israel conflict, has brought 1,800 volunteers to the West Bank to "witness life under occupation."
