About [Edit]
Overview
The "Palestinian-Israeli Peace NGOs Forum" is a dynamic, yet formal
infrastructure, promoting ongoing cooperation and interaction between
active Palestinian and Israeli Peace NGOs. Forum members work together
to influence decision making and public opinion, support the peace
process and reconciliation efforts by mobilizing civil society and
greater populations of the region.
The Palestinian NGO, Panorama Center and the Israeli NGO, Peres
Center for Peace commenced preparations for the launch of the
"Palestinian-Israeli Peace NGOs Forum" in November 2005, with a view to
coordinating a program of activities to enhance the independent and
joint efforts of Palestinian and Israeli Peace NGOs. The Peace NGOs
Forum is kindly funded by the European Union.
The program focuses on Peace NGOs, recognizing that they serve as a
unique link between the macro and micro levels. On the micro level,
most of the organizations that are members of the forum are grassroots
organizations and consequently, have direct connections to the
citizens. This, of course, enables them to reach a vast range of
audiences. The program also enhances the capacities of these Peace
NGOs, allowing them to better work towards their goal of reconciliation
among the populations. On the macro level, although there is stagnation
at the governmental level, the fact that there are joint efforts from
Palestinian and Israeli peace NGOs that are dispersed over different
fields makes them potential catalysts for change and dialogue.
In order to utilize this uniqueness, the Forum includes three
working platforms; 1-the Palestinian Peace NGO Forum, 2-the Israeli
Peace NGO Forum, and 3-the Palestinian-Israeli Peace NGO Forum. Working
in parallel on three separate tracks provides a way to accommodate our
societies' varying audiences and enables the generation of independent,
yet, appropriate means of action and messages. Furthermore, two
separate Forums, the Israeli and the Palestinian, fulfill the need for
internal work between organizations, as well as in each respective
society in order to strengthen the civil societies. The key elements of
the three forums include ongoing meetings and workshops (separate
meetings for representatives from Palestinian and Israeli Peace NGOs,
joint Palestinian-Israeli conferences); Working Groups (to address
specific issues of mutual concern); and an online community (website).
Through these three avenues, the program provides activities in the
fields of networking, competence building and media advocacy, thereby
increasing the skills of the local institutions and amplifying their
message to the public.

I have just received notification of a new book from my cousin about the island of our parents' origin, Cyprus, and the inexorable but unnecessary move towards partition, which, because largely of "big boy" NATO politics became a fait accompli in 1974.
I believe the two links, one to A Guardian introduction to the book and one to the site for the book, have some light to shed on the future of Palestinian Israeli Peace:

Bless you!

Hmm... that's not possible. What you can do is to create two listings. Each with different address and name:
And then link them both via the Networking section and the About section. For the video, you only need to enter this part of URL --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKZSIccxbtM ... to get: |

This is a truly staggering account!!! It dispels at once my own conjecture, prejudice and ignorance as to what is going on in the middle east, a trait, partly induced by the media's tendency to highlight the negative. Bowo, is it possible to add the Panorama - Palestine address as well as the Peres address above?

Thank you, Louis,
I'll have a look at them later, in the meantime please join A WiserEarth Palestine-Israel Platform
