A unique, charity peace event.

It is intended to inspire hope for a positive future where peace and justice prevail for both Palestinian and Israelis, where they can live in equality and mutual respect. The event will be an opportunity to explore ideas; to better understand the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict; and to gain some insight into the humanity and experience of both Israelis and Palestinians

All proceeds will go to support Combatants for Peace  a grassroot organisation that has for many years been working to promote justice and coexistence in the region. Secondly, proceeds will go to Al Quds Foundation for Medical Education in Palestine, a British based charity, founded in 1997 to advance medical education in Palestine.
