Between April and July, the School for Peace led 24 participants in an intensive training program for Palestinian–Jewish dialogue facilitators. Over 11 sessions, 12 Palestinians and 12 Jews (13 women and 11 men) honed their facilitation skills, developing the courage to ask uncomfortable questions, even of oneself. According to Director Roi Silberberg, “The space also allowed for rare closeness. The Jewish group could face the reality of crimes committed in their name; the Palestinian group could share pain, guilt, and paralysis in the face of the war. Together they created a binational space that stood in stark contrast to the prevailing relationships outside.”
