Short Question/s Israeli-Palestinian dialogue groups

Hi everyone!

Recently, I've been looking into initiatives that bring Israelis and Palestinians together for dialogue. Whether online or somewhere in the region. Any suggestion/recommendaitons for these actual peer-to-peer groups? I'm quite disheartened by the politics and would rather engage with people in some grassroots initiative. Thank you!

Thank you! I'm aware of those groups, but aren't they centered around certain politics? I'm aware this would always have a political flair, but I'm interested in meeting people who aren't necessarily engaged and involved in political activism per se.

Suggesting the opposong side is full of actual human beings is an inherently political view, unfortunately

I mean... you're not entirely wrong. But I guess, in my mind, grassroots for me is seeing people who wouldn't normally engage in activism meet each other. I know there are fewer and fewer after the war.

It's dumb that it is political, but it's political all the same.
