The School for Peace in its fifth year of partnership with the Arab Center for Alternative
Planning provided "Shared Cities", a course for Architects, Civil Engineers, and City
Planners. The program's meeting in late December for all Shared Cities graduates is
building a network focused on changing the face of urban planning throughout the
country.
The SFP has collaborated with four universities to deliver graduate-level courses
designed to foster dispute resolution skills and deepen participants' understanding of
conflict. Tel Aviv University, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Haifa University, and
Ruppin College all hold these classes during the academic year as part of existing
degree programs.
As an increasing number of people participate in SFP courses, SFP graduates make
their mark more widely in the nation. Peace Now director Shaqued Morag, who graduated from the 2016 Up-and-Coming Politicians Course, spoke recently at a conference of Israeli peace organizations in Ramullah. The speech was attended by over three hundred activists, many of whom have engaged with the SFP either through
taking a course or through partnership with their own organizations.
The School for Peace's impact and influence continue to grow. As more graduates use
the skills they have learned through the School for Peace, it is crucial that we
provide the SFP the necessary our support to do its work.
