Israeli-Palestinian Journalist Meeting

A group of high-level Israeli journalists met with Palestinian media experts to learn firsthand about the situation on the ground in the West Bank and Gaza and discuss war coverage on both sides. The meeting is part of a broader project aimed at improving ties, information sharing and empathetic coverage between Israeli and Palestinian journalists. 

Arab-Jewish Policy Dialogue

Twenty-eight young leaders from Arab and Jewish communities throughout the north, south, and center of Israel came together for a two-day trust-building seminar in Haifa. The seminar combined content about the conflict and the two-state solution with direct dialogue sessions between participants about narratives, perspectives, and potential partnerships to advance peace. 

Activist Training Workshop 

Twenty young Israelis active in pro-democracy movements in Israel joined us for a workshop introducing them to the two-state solution model, clarifying the connection between the democratic character of Israel and the future of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and answering their many questions about how to speak about peace and Palestinian partnership in a societal climate of fear and distrust.
