FOR Interfaith Peace-Builders, IFPB, FOR
FOR’s Interfaith Peace-Builders program sends delegations to Israel and Palestine so that U.S. citizens of all faith backgrounds (or none) can see the conflict with their own eyes. Participants learn directly from local nonviolent peace activists, spend time in Palestinian and Israeli homes, and experience the situation of Palestinians living under military occupation. IFPB places a strong emphasis on continuing work when participants return to the U.S. The program asks for a commitment from participants to educate people in their communities about the conflict, to write and speak about their experiences, and to join with FOR and other organizations working to end the conflict.
