Last year’s experience was truly remarkable. I believe we had participants from over 10 different countries, which made it an incredible experience for all of us.

"Up to $200 per person"

Well, a one-way ticket from where I am to Tehran costs over $900, so a round trip would cost at least $1800...

    Last year, we covered the full round-trip travel costs for participants, and this year we’re also making our best efforts to provide similar support.
