Update on recent Israeli-Palestinian conflicts

Author: Joya Helmuth

Notre Dame International is aware of the current tensionĀ and violence occurring in the Israeli-Palestinian context. Our programs through the Jerusalem Global Gateway and Tantur Ecumenical Institute continue to operate normally. Notre Dame International is working with colleagues on the ground, who are in close contact with students and personnel in the area. We will continue to monitor the situation and if the situation changes, will update this advisory.

Additionally, the U.S. Department of State has updated travel warnings for Israel and Jordan.

Notre Dame remains committed to internationalization in all its manifestations and as such we have no plans at this point to curtail or cancel any programs abroad. We do, however, monitor world events diligently and will take whatever actions we deem necessary as circumstances arise to ensure the safety of our students, faculty and staff and to be sure our international education decisions are well grounded.
