In an effort to strengthen and promote reconciliation across civil societies, civil society actors from Cyprus, Israel and the Palestinian Territories came together for the Conference held at the Home for Cooperation in the UN Buffer zone in Nicosia, Cyprus. The conference provided a space for participants to learn from each other, share personal experiences and ideas with fellow civil society actors and academics, as well as jointly develop alternative proposals to help bridge the divide between communities. Through a set of presentations, workshops, and panel discussions participants were given the opportunity to explore the successes and challenges of civil society actions working across the divide in Cyprus, Israel and the Palestinian Territories and endorse joint, strategic, and coherent action plans for Democratization, Conciliation and Human Rights. | In an effort to strengthen and promote reconciliation across civil societies, civil society actors from Cyprus, Israel and the Palestinian Territories came together for the Conference held at the Home for Cooperation in the UN Buffer zone in Nicosia, Cyprus.
