The School of Global Integrative Studies, the Harris Center for Judaic Studies and the Honors Program will host the The Dialogue Project at noon Oct. 28 via Zoom.

The Dialogue Project is a discussion about environmental peace building and cooperation in Israel and Palestine. Arava Institute alumni from Israel, Palestine and Jordan will be joining for a conversation and discussion that highlight the transformative use of dialogue in the Middle East and beyond.

During this event the alumni speakers will share their experiences before, during and after the Arava Institute, and illustrate how dialogue has been a tool for environmental peace building in their lives. Participants will also be able to hear more about how to get more involved in the mission of the Arava Institute. In addition, the participants will learn more about the tools of dialogue and how to engage in environmental peace building in their own communities. The group will address the matter of dialogue vs. debate, how dialogue reveals what lies beneath the surface of conflict, and how to transform dialogue into action.

Space is limited, and registration is required for the event.
