Beyond the Headlines: Israelis, Iranians, and Palestinians in Their Own Words
28/04/26
Over 2,200 activists joined an international call this past Monday, listening to Amira Musallam, a peace activist from Beit Jala and Director of Protective Presence Initiatives in the West Bank; Sarah Haghdoosti, an Iranian-American activist for peace and democracy; and Sarit Larry from Israel, Deputy ED and Campaign Director at Zazim.
Despite the volatile situation locally and globally, this gathering created a different kind of conversation. Each speaker shared her personal story and professional point of view, and throughout the discussion, a persistent insight emerged: this war is not inevitable. Most wars aren’t. Similar to peace, war is also a choice. Let us choose peace.
The webinar was initiated by Zazim in collaboration with our sister organizations in Germany, Campact, and in the UK, 38 Degrees, in partnership with Europe Calling.
