Peacebuilding in the Context of Palestine-Israel: Challenges and Prospects

with Shadia Qubti and Tony Deik

Presented for the Stott-Bediako Forum

One of the most divisive conflicts in our world today is that which plays itself out in the land of Palestine-Israel. However, there is much in the story of this conflict that is rarely told.

Let’s take a journey together to understand the history of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict through the narration of two Palestinian Christians and members of the INFEMIT community, Shadia Qubti and Tony Deik. 

A little bit of context (habilita subtítulos en español):

Peacebuilding in the Context of Palestine-Israel: Challenges and Prospects (habilita subtítulos en español):

…the trauma of what happened in the Nakba is still ongoing, it’s an intergenerational trauma.
