Creativity for Peace

Description

Creativity for Peace trains young Israeli and Palestinian women to partner as leaders by transforming anger and prejudice to mutual respect, facilitating an understanding of the other, and inspiring action to promote equality and peace.
Operating in the USA, Palestine, and Israel, Creativity for Peace uses dialogue and art to introduce the story of the other side and begin the compassion and healing necessary for reconciliation. Programs for more than 300 participants include a three-week summer intensive, year-round gatherings, advanced leadership training, projects facilitated by young peacemakers for their peers in Israel, Palestine, and the United States, and training of women in the early stages of their political careers.
