As activists and leaders, how can we gather our collective wisdom to transform the grief and isolation of war into community healing, groundbreaking initiatives, and heartfelt activism?
Ahlan أهلاً אהלן
We are really proud to invite you - experienced activists, Palestinian, Israeli & Ally, from all genders and ages, to the first ever feminine-led 10 day gathering dedicated to Nonviolent Resistance and Emergent Participatory Peace Building during war. Many of us have been working together on building community, equity and justice over the last decade.
After gathering and grounding we will train in community oriented methodologies such as The Art of Participatory Leadership, Non-Violent Communication, and the practice of Nonviolent Resistance. Having built a container, we will then open the space for 3 days for the emergence of initiatives, collaborations, new paradigms and connections to resources.
Learn more about the concept and structure of this prject on our home page.
What we stand for:
~ The killing needs to stop immediately.
~ Equal rights, safety & freedom for all throughout the land.
~ We support and practice nonviolent resistance.
