Our major projects include highlighting the nonviolent efforts of Palestinians, Israelis, and citizens of other nations to end the occupation of Palestinian territories, organizing the "Jerusalem Women Speak: Three Women, Three Faiths, One Shared Vision" speaking tour, and advocacy with the media. We strongly advocate a connection between means and ends. We think that for the good of both Palestinians and Israelis that the occupation should end, but think this goal should be advanced by nonviolence rather than attacks on civilians. Attacks on Israeli or Palestinian civilians warrant criticism and do significant damage to advancing substantive peacemaking.
