The Parents Circle Families Forum is a joint Israeli-Palestinian NGO founded by people who lost an immediate family member in the conflict. Its mission is to work towards the end of violence in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, towards political agreement, and to spread their framework of conflict resolution to conflict-riven societies around the globe. In this dialogue meeting, two Parents Circle Families Forum members—one Israeli and one Palestinian—share their stories of bereavement and explain why they have chosen to walk a path of reconciliation rather than revenge. They then talk about their organization’s work around the world, and end the session with time for questions and answers.
