It enables students from different social background to engage in an innovative and intercultural creation. Young people face different challenges in the course of their life. Among these challenges: the obligation and/ or choice of leaving their homes looking for personal space and independence. This podcast evokes this subject by telling the stories of a 25 years old israeli college student from Sapir Academic College and 23 years old moroccan from MAHIR Center - Connect Institute at the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University. They both have different experiences with the topic that they shared sincerely in this podcast project.Created by: Bar Elbaz & Ayman Errahimi
