Walking Alongside: Alternative Methods of Nonviolent Accompaniment in Israel/Palestine
27 Sep 2008 - 09:30
27 Sep 2008 - 16:00
Description
Presenter(s): CPT, EAPPI, ISM
Sixty years after the creation of the state of Israel, tensions in the Holy Land continue to capture the attention of the world, and continue to divide people of all faiths across the globe.
Come and spend a day with representatives from three organizations working to reduce violence in the region: Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT), Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine Israel (EAPPI), and the International Solidarity Movement (ISM).
As well as hearing first hand understandings of the conflict, there will be opportunities for discussion and interactive learning around different strands of non-violent accompaniment and violence reduction methods. Violence is never the only way.
Saturday 27 September, at the London Mennonite Centre
9:30 am to 4:00 pm
Fee: £20 (£10 unwaged)
Fee includes VAT and meal
