The Fund is a Congressional appropriation to support local-level people-to-people (P2P) conflict mitigation and reconciliation programs, and has grown from an initial award pool of $8 million to $26 million annually, with $10 million specifically allocated for programs in Israel/West Bank/Gaza (IWBG). To date, the APS has supported over 135 peacebuilding projects in 35 countries. Grants range from $500,000 to $1.2 million for projects of 12-36 months in duration; smaller Fixed Obligation Grants (FOGs) also offer up to $100,000 for short-term projects.57 As defined in CMMs People-to-People Peacebuilding: A Program Guide, P2P reconciliation programs operate based on the Theory of Change (ToC) that in communities where elites or other societal forces have damaged or severed the relationships connecting individuals and groups of differing ethnic, political, religious, or other identities strong, positive relationships will mitigate against the forces of dehumanization, stereotyping, and distancing that facilitate violence.58 APS projects generally bring together individuals of different ethnic, religious, or political affiliations from areas of conflict. They provide opportunities for adversaries to address issues, reconcile differences, promote greater understanding and mutual trust, and work on common goals with regard to potential, ongoing, or recently ended conflict. Project Descriptions In the IWBG region, the APS program has distributed $42.7 million worth of grants since 2004, to fund 60 P2P projects implemented by 42 different organizations, reaching tens of thousands of beneficiaries. Projects selected employ a wide range of intervention approaches and engage a variety of target populations, reflecting the diversity of the Israeli/Palestinian peacebuilding field and CMMs pluralistic definition of P2P work.59 Grantee approaches range from civil society activism, dialogue, economic development, education, empowerment of youth, women and minorities, environmental peacebuilding, human rights and issue advocacy, media, psychosocial work and trauma healing, research, sport, and technological cooperation. 57 CMM Annual Program Statement Call for Proposals 2012 (henceforth APS FY 2012); Important APS Milestones, draft document provided to evaluation team by CMM. 58 People-to-People Peacebuilding: A Program Guide, USAID/DCHA/CMM (January 2011), p. 5 (henceforth P2P Program Guide). 59 There is no single solution to resolving violent conflict.

(SI) began a two-year Evaluative Learning Review of targeted awards and activities under APS. The objectives of this review are not only to learn about the APS programs themselves, but also to build CMMs technical leadership in evaluation of complex programs through a pilot application of the developmental evaluation methodology. CMM APS managers commissioned this IWBG field evaluation as the first of three separate regional evaluations designed to inform a two-year Evaluative Learning Review of the global APS programthe second evaluation took place in Bosnia-Herzegovina in December 2012, and the third in Burundi during summer 2013. The primary purpose for these field evaluations is to advance CMM and broader Agency learning about how to effectively design, implement, and manage APS-type projects in the future. They are intended to analyze how program designs and implementation respond to significant contextual factors and conflict drivers in order to inform more responsive and relevant grant making in the future. The primary audience for this evaluation report is CMM, but the target audience also includes the local USAID Mission, local APS grantees, and scholars and practitioners of peacebuilding. Research Methods and Evaluation Questions/Areas of Inquiry Evaluation design and conduct were guided by the principles of Developmental Evaluation (DE), an approach designed to inform and support innovative and adaptive development in complex, dynamic environments.60 As such, DE is well suited to the study of Israeli-Palestinian peacebuilding initiatives during a period of profound political upheaval in the Middle East. DE provides conceptual lenses for focused inquiry rather than prescribing research methods; in particular, DE demands attention to a projects ongoing development within a context defined by emergence, nonlinearity and dynamism. The evaluation team employed traditional qualitative methodsinterviews, focus groups, and site visits during the initial field phase, and a survey distributed following fieldwork in order to validate preliminary findings and conclusions. Analytically, the team focused on identifying salient themes regarding four primary areas of inquiry: x The contemporary context of P2P peacebuilding work in IWBG and features limiting or potentially enhancing project impact; x Successful

  • A Future for Israeli-Palestinian Peacebuilding
    Britain Israel Communications and Research Centre A future for Israeli-Palestinian peacebuilding Ned Lazarus July 2017 The Israel-Palestine conflict is one of the most heavily researched in the world. Yet a shockingly small fraction of this research focuses on the millions of Israelis and Palestinians who share this land, their relations with one another, and how such relations could be improved so that a breakthrough might be possible. This report is both timely and necessary, and can hopefully provide a blueprint for greater international support of civil society efforts to foster conflict resolution.

    Palestine-Israel Journal PIJ Policy Paper No. 3 Palestinian Refugees and the Two-State Solution Findings and recommendations of an expert roundtable discussion Jerusalem, December 2009 Moderated and Edited by Ziad Abu Zayyad & Hillel Schenker Organized and drafted by Jumana AZ Jaouni & Ofer Zalzberg This document has been produced with the financial assistance of the European Union. The contents of this document are the sole responsibility of the PALESTINE-ISRAEL Journal and can under no circumstances be regarded as reflecting the position of the European Union. PIJ POLICY PAPER - PALESTINIAN REFUGEES AND THE TWO-STATE SOLUTION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The issue of the Palestinian refugees is at the core of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and an agreement on this core issue is central to the survival of any political settle- ment to the conflict based upon the two-state solution. No settlement to this conflict can be achieved without reaching a fair and just solution to the refugee problem. Total rejection of the Palestinian refugees’ right of return or of responsibility for the refugee problem seems counterproductive, as does the insistence on the full actual practice of this right. One side must relinquish its position, or both sides should take the necessary steps and meet somewhere along the spectrum between the two diametrically opposed positions. It is precisely because of its centrality that it was decided to assess the impact of the refugee problem on the prospects for achieving the two-state solution. The main objective is to advise on what could or should be the policy for a two-state solution to remain viable and sustainable and to be implemented as soon as possible.

  • Isratin: the One-State Solution to the Israeli-Palestinian
    Isratin: The One-State Solution to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Ken-Ben Chao War in the 20th Century Mr. John Bickel January 6, 2011 An anxious crowd of two hundred and fifty people gathered and waited outside the Tel Aviv Museum on May 14, 1948. Within the next thirty-two minutes, the State of Israel was formally established. After nearly two millennia in exile, the Jewish homeland was reborn. The next day, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, and Iraq attacked Israel, prompting the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. Within the next sixty years, several other wars would be fought over the Israeli-Palestinian question. Today, the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, or Arab-Israeli Conflict, remains a critical obstacle to world peace and stability in the Middle East. Though peace talks have been in progress for decades, numerous issues continue to obstruct success in the negotiations. If a viable solution to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict is not created and implemented, the conflict will continue to plague the region with terrorism and war. Despite many proposed solutions, obstacles such as Jerusalem, the Israeli settlements, and Palestinian terrorism impede significant progress in the peace talks. With the numerous issues regarding the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, the best solution is a gradual reintegration of Palestinians into the Holy Land, a relaxation of tensions between the various factions, and the beginning of serious negotiations towards an eventual one-state solution. History In order to fully comprehend the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, an understanding of the region’s bloody history must first be attained. The origin of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict goes as far back as the Biblical era.

Means Imperialist Slaughter Across the U.S. and Europe, outraged demonstrators poured into the streets by the thousands. While the media presented gushing accounts of a high-tech video war game and romantic sunset shots of U.S. fighter planes, millions in Baghdad and other Iraqi cities were experiencing the all-too-real stench of death on· the streets and the screech of terror from the skies. The White House proclaimed: "The liberation of Kuwait has begun." the Spartacist League said: "The mass mur­ der of the Iraqi people had begun." To believe the first hours of TV cover­ age, the high-tech U.S. war machine was sweeping the field in a seemingly blood­ less war that would be all but over by breakfast. Bush cheered that his dogs of war were "right on schedule." Before midnight the first "instant poll" results were in: 86 percent say "yes" to war. Evangelist preacher Billy Graham was called to the White House to stay in the guest bedroom and conduct a prayer breakfast the next morning.
