Across the Divide: Jewish & Arab Israeli Women
Jewish Book Week
| Dror Rubin | speaker |
|---|---|
| Ghadir Hani | speaker |
| Joanne Greenaway | chair |
Two changemakers describe their continued efforts to facilitate dialogue and trust amidst the horrors of war, carrying on the legacy of one of many peace activists murdered on 7 October.
Peace activist Vivian Silver was one of many murdered in the Gaza Envelope on October 7th. Amid profound grief, her partners in peace have continued her work with Women Write Hope: Life Stories of Jewish and Arab Women Waging Peace Amidst War. We welcome two key figures behind this remarkable initiative: social changemaker Ghadir Hani, who facilitates dialogue between Israelis and Palestinians, and Dror Rubin, who focuses on Israel’s mixed cities and builds trust between Jews and Arabs. They will discuss the accompanying book, which documents the lives of 21 women.
This event will last approximately 1 hour, with no interval.
In partnership with the New Israel Fund
