We invite you to join us in celebrating the people who are putting effort into dialogue amid inconceivable, destructive conflict.
In 2019, we held a workshop with participants of the International Association for Intercultural Education (IAIE) conference, in Amsterdam. Two participants from Israel approached us with the proposal to translate the C4D in Hebrew and Arabic. A few months later it was done!
Many thanks to Sharon Benheim and Samar Al Dina from the Martin Springer Center for Conflict Studies at Ben Gurion University.
Today, in the midst of armed conflict, there are organisations that continue to gather students around peace building, dialogue and conflict resolution. This is a courageous endeavor in a situation that might seem inextricable. We express our heartfelt support for such groups and their members.
We invite you to learn more about some of these initiatives. For example:
- The Arava institute gathers students to develop their skills and reflections towards conflict resolution and climate action. We suggest you read this fascinating account from a Palestinian student: “I’m Not Leaving”: Reflections from an Arava Institute Alum.
- This article explores how to foster children’s openness to contact with outgroup children: “Can we promote children’s openness towards the other group in violent conflict? The story of Jewish and Arab kindergarten teachers in Israel”
