These are crucial and difficult months in the lives of Israelis and Palestinians. We know, however, that a just and lasting peace will never come to the Middle East if peace-making is left solely to governments. The peoples of Israel/Palestine working for justice, peace and reconciliation need the help of us, the international civil society, people of good will, who will not let occupation, conflict and injustice prevail.
In order to express our solidarity with the peoples of Palestine and Israel and to empower ourselves to work more effectively for a just peace, the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD), one of the leading Israeli peace organizations, has teamed up with Experience Travel Tours of the UK to enable potential and active peace-makers to visit the area, meet the people on all sides and evaluate the situation for themselves. Ten days of experiencing “the facts on the ground” will add critical depth to your reading, attending lectures and advocacy. Our study tour brings you into direct interaction with local individuals and organizations representing a broad set of opinions in both Palestinian and Israeli societies, while providing a wide range of experiences, including quality time with local peace-makers and activists. ICAHD’s views, grounded in years of activism on the ground and in-depth analysis, are frequently sought by diplomats, journalists, fact-finding missions and academic groups, in Israel and abroad. Being “embedded” with the people on both sides provides a maximum of personal security.
