    Situation

    There is currently a widening gap between Jewish, Muslim, pro-Palestinian and pro-Israeli communities in the UK. The grievances held by these communities concerning what is happening in Israel and Palestine, often result in conflict and exclusion for them in the UK, and the divisions become even deeper whenever there is an internationally reported incident in the region. Yet very little is currently being done to address this specific issue.

    Solution

    The conflict resolution and leadership workshops, discussion groups, and meetings with Israelis and Palestinians teach participants to express their views in a way that enables them to reach through the prejudices of other parties. They are also equipped to take the lead in mediation and education within their own communities. This will lead to greater tolerance between groups, and consensus around a constructive response to the conflict.
