Who We Are
We are Palestinian and Israeli women and mothers who see it as our maternal responsibility to speak out and act for our children. We believe that Peace is possible when women of courage and faith stand up for the future of their children. Together we co-founded: האהבה היא הכוח المحبة هي القوة Love Is The Power NGO, determined to create a new reality in the region.
