On February 4, 2016, another encounter was held in Jerusalem, between East and West, in the lobby of the Dan Panorama Hotel on French Hill. It was attended by Yael, Shani, Shira and Eftikhar.
After a brief update, we talked about the head covering that Jewish and Arab women wear. We discussed its meaning, reasons, and the ability of a woman to choose to cover her head or not. Also we talked a little about the age of marriage, events and celebrations. The encounter was conducted in both Hebrew and in Arabic in an attempt to bridge the language gap and understand each other even when we are not proficient in both languages. The atmosphere was positive and we managed to hold a fascinating discussion.
