For the first time, the School for Peace ran a change agents program for performing artists. We see the performing arts as an avenue to reach out to a larger diverse population through political theater and cinema. The graduates of the program organized an arts festival with video art, theater, and plastic arts, in the unrecognized village of Al-Araqib, which was attended by hundreds of participants.
As a result of the SFP program for leaders in mixed cities, with our support a group of Jewish and Palestinian educators have come together to begin developing a Bi-National Educators Forum. The forum has begun identifying specific issues in the Jewish and Arab educational system and how this has led to increased conflict between the two groups. The forum will create a platform for sharing bi-national issues of teachers, researchers, and teaching staff from a variety of backgrounds and professions. The goal is to begin developing content that will contribute to educator's ability to help their students understand the other. https://sfpeace.org/al-araqib/
