"ISRAEL & PALESTINE"
Mazen Badra, Minds of Peace Experiment
The “Minds of Peace Experiment” is a series of unique exercises in peacemaking and conflict resolution. It proposes simulations of a potential Palestinian-Israeli public assembly – a multi-party negotiating congress. The assembly is designed to involve the people in the peace process through provoking a public debate over central issues. Mazen Badra, a professor at Webster University and Sanford-Brown, will discuss his experience as a Palestinian involved in Minds of Peace and the possibility of peace between Israelis and Palestinians.
Sunday, March 21, 1:00 - 3:00 pm

Dr. Damayanthi Niles, Associate Professor of Constructive Theology, Eden Theologial Seminary
Dr. Niles is a Presbyterian minister and true citizen of the world. She has lived, worked and studied in several countries and challenges stereotypes and assumptions with her stories and her eclectic experience and world view.
