Israelis and Palestinians will discuss and negotiate practical and
mutually-satisfactory solutions to all aspects of the conflict, seated
at the Goethe institute, Tel Aviv. At
the end, a strategic plan - for the establishment of a major Grassroots Negotiating
Congress with political influence - will be presented.

Israelis and Palestinians will hold grassroots negotiations, seeking to
reach solutions to all aspects of the conflict, in two separate forums:
adults and youth.
They will discuss, debate and negotiate trust building measures, the
optimal
solution to the conflict, and practical solutions to the core issues.
The
negotiations are open to the public and to media coverage. The congress
will be
held in the presence of international observers.
Of
course, none of the participants is officially authorized to sign a
binding agreement, on either the Israeli or the Palestinian side. The
idea - in this as in various earlier such initiatives - is to show that
given good will and an open mind on both sides. it is possible for
Israelis and Palestinians to find a solution even for the most sensitive
and difficult aspects of the conflict. It is hoped that this might
eventually have an effect on those who are empowered to negotiate
officially, reach a binding agreement and proceed to implement it. To
that end, the congress will concluded with presenting a
strategic plan for the establishment of a major Israeli-Palestinian
Public
Negotiating Congress will be presented – a powerful peacemaking
institution
that will operate over a period of time. The congress is designed to
involve
the people in the peacemaking efforts and motivate the leadership, on
both
sides, to conclude agreements.
The
congress is sponsored by the Leon
Charney Resolution Center. The center was established to help different
communities cope with social crises and prepare the young generation to handle
conflicts by peaceful means.
The
late Leon Charney had dedicated a major part
of his life to back-channel diplomacy, understood that the road to peace and
stability required peacemaking activities in multiple dimensions. Leon and his
wife, Tzili, established the center in order to encourage, develop, and
initiate activities that can create the foundation for a better world.
