“Partnering for an End to War and a Just Peace in Israel/Palestine: An Evening with Combatants for Peace”

Combatants for Peace (CfP) is committed to joint nonviolence and uses civil resistance, education, and other creative means of activism to transform systems of oppression and build a free and peaceful future from the ground up. Launched in 2006, they are the only movement worldwide founded by former fighters on both sides of an active conflict. As a result, they were nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2017 and 2018. Delivering the keynote talk will be four activists: Elie Avidor, Iris Gur, Sulaiman Khatib, and Mai Shahin.
