School for Peace
The School for Peace
The School for Peace (SFP) was established in 1979 as the first Jewish – Palestinian educational institution to promote broad scale change towards peaceful, humane, egalitarian and just relations between the two peoples. Some 65,000 Jews and Palestinians from Israel and Palestinians from the Occupied Territories have taken part in its programs.
The School for Peace works with young and adult, male and female, Jewish and Palestinian groups, including students, professionals, members of NGOs and others. It offers workshops, training programs and university courses, and trains professionals from fields such as politics, media, environmentalism, education, urban planning, leadership in shared cities and mental health services. In programs based on a truly equal dialogue, the SFP boosts a joint awareness of the conflict and of the role played by the individual in creating or ameliorating it. The programs encourage the graduates to take personal initiative for establishing ongoing joint projects.
The SFP produces publications in various languages on peace, dialogue and the conflict, and recently established a research center on these issues. The SFP’s world class facilitator training program has over 1,000 graduates, some of whom have gone on to lead peace, social change, and human rights organizations in Israel and Palestine.
