I denne episoden møter vi Angela Scharff fra Women Wage Peace i Israel og Lana El fra Women of the Sun, en palestinsk kvinneorganisasjon. Sammen utforsker de veiene for samarbeid på tvers av kulturelle og politiske barrierer, og ser på hvordan kvinner kan spille en avgjørende rolle i fredsbygging…
To kvinnelige ledere fra Israel og Palestina snakker om fred.
A must-listen if you are in the need of hope or be inspired by others working to create peace. We meet Angela Scharff and Lana x — from two Nobel Peace Prize–nominated organizations, female leaders from opposite sides of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Links to their work below! And share the conversation with those who care for their shared future. Scharff represents Women Wage Peace, Israel’s largest grassroots peace movement. Lana is a leading figure in Women of the Sun, a Palestinian women’s organization working for dignity, security and political inclusion. Together, they cooperate across borders, trauma and deep political divides to pursue concrete, practical improvements in Gaza and the West Bank. The conversation explores conditions on the ground, the durability of the current ceasefire, political legitimacy within Palestinian leadership, and the challenges facing Israeli decision-makers. We discuss how daily life has changed in Gaza, what is urgently needed to improve living conditions, and how international actors — including Norway — can play a constructive role.At the core of this episode is a shared conviction: that women, as mothers and daughters, carry a unique ability to build trust, create social cohesion and sustain peace where formal politics often fails. This is not an activist manifesto, but a grounded discussion of peace as long-term work — rooted in responsibility, realism and hope.Please sign the petition and join their Barefoot Walk and read more about these two fantastic organizations and how you can promote their work: https://mothers-call.org/ Also visit https://womensun.org/ and https://www.womenwagepeace.org.il/en/ to see how to support their work.
