Peace processes. A reflection on the need to build bridges for dialogue that allow us to find solutions for the conflict between Israel and Palestine.
Rami Elhanan is Israeli and Bassam Aramin is Palestinian. They live close to each other but exist in separate worlds.
Their lives were shattered when their daughters Smadar and Abrir were killed, one by a Hamas suicide attack in the centre of Jerusalem in 1997, and the other by an Israeli policeman as she was leaving school in 2007. Faced with these terrible circumstances, instead of giving in to hatred and violence, both decided to join forces to opt for dialogue and work together for peace, human rights for all and the end of the occupation through the association The Parents Circle - Families Forum, through which they promote reconciliation between the two communities.
Rami and Bassam, who have become close friends, now share their experiences around the world and say that “the only way forward is to talk to each other, understand each other's point of view and make concessions”.
After more than a year of war, in this conversation, Bassam Aramin and Rami Elhanan talk with the journalist and political scientist and expert in peace processes, Jordi Armadans, about the transformational power of empathy, friendship and the needs and options for building a future of peace and coexistence.
Languages: Catalan / English. A simultaneous English– Catalan translation service will be available.
