We had the opportunity to include some of our American supporters to join our Israeli and Palestinian bereaved Women’s Group in their gathering on International Women’s Day on Monday, March 8 via Zoom.
This was a chance to connect with female Israelis and Palestinians who have paid the highest price to the conflict and are committed to leading a peace process.
We heard from two leading feminist, peace activists Israeli, Nurit Hajaj and Palestinian, Huda Abuarquob about women’s role in the promotion of peace in Israel and Palestine during difficult times. It was an opportunity to listen, to share, to meet and to connect.
We heard from our women’s leadership team about the Flowers of Hope project they have been working on – an album of pressed, dried flowers in honor of their lost loved ones as a gift for the U.S. Vice President, Kamala Harris to mark International Women’s Day (click here to view).
