Working around the clock, building foreign relations, meeting with ambassadors, welcoming delegations visiting the country, and participating in panels worldwide - All this to spread our message: a demand to end the war, return all hostages, and immediately begin serious talks to end the conflict. The Mothers' Call, which we wrote together with the Palestinian movement, Women of the Sun, has been received with appreciation and respect around the world. Here are some of the events in which we participated recently: ▪ Meeting with the SMD delegation of the European Union ▪ Meeting with a delegation of British Parliament members. In the photo: MP Emily Thornberry signing the Mothers’ Call ▪ Event at the Norwegian Ambassador's residence honoring the diplomatic community. We will continue to meet with anyone willing to help make things better here.

Founded in the aftermath of the 50-day Gaza War/Operation Protective Edge of 2014, Women Wage Peace (WWP) has grown to 45,000 Israeli members, the largest grassroots peace movement in Israel today. WWP’s theory of change refracts the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and its resolution, through a gendered lens. In the words of former US Ambassador Swanee Hunt, “Women tend to have a more holistic view of security, which embraces not just political sovereignty and military strength, but also economic security, education, and personal safety.” The movement is non-partisan and does not support any one specific solution to the conflict. Instead, it empowers women from diverse communities to build trust across divides, leading in turn to a unified demand for diplomatic negotiation, with full representation of women, to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. WWP enables women to unite and take the future of this small place into our own hands –from the political left, center and right, younger and older women, those from the center of the country and its periphery, religious and secular, Jewish, Arab, Druze and Bedouin. The movement continues to refine its non-hierarchical structure, distributing its work among thousands of volunteers who serve on regional and/or mission-specific teams including Government Engagement, Foreign Affairs, Digital Communication, Special Projects, and Strategy.

At the Munich Security Conference held this weekend, a two-part event took place under the title "Prospects for Peace in the Middle East." In the first part, the Israeli Foreign Minister was interviewed, while in the second part, the Jordanian Foreign Minister and the Vice President of the European Commission were interviewed. Dr. Yael Braudo-Bahat, co-director of Women Wage Peace, asked a simple question: Why are there two separate conversations here - and where are the women and civil society? Listen to the question, the response from moderator Christiane Amanpour, senior CNN anchor, and the answer of the Jordanian Foreign Minister. How unfortunate that the Israeli Foreign Minister does not support our message like his Jordanian counterpart.
