Negotiating
Our Future Funded by the EU
Joint project between CCRR and
school for peace
Specific
Objectives:
·
To provide participants with an opportunity to experience
the dynamics of negotiations and to examine together the psychological,
cultural, political and technical aspects that obstruct or advance
agreements. This includes a look at the different tactics of each
national group, the importance of the settings, of the location, and the
importance of equality in conducting negotiations.
·
To gain insight into the obstacles of negotiations and
create tools that can help overcome them.
To
publicize a document summarizing the experiences, thoughts, analysis and
recommendations that come out of this process in order to contribute to
a broader understanding of the needs and traps of Palestinian – Israeli
negotiations.
The main
activity:
The program
will be conducted in 3 rounds of Negotiations:
The participants
will divide into six committees of ten participants (five Israelis and
five Palestinians). Each committee will conduct negotiations on one of
the six topics chosen by the management team. The management team will
be responsible for the process. The staff will be present and help the
process develop. This will be a five-day meeting conducted abroad for
each meeting.
Both CCRR
and SFP see this program as a natural development of their
“crossing border” work. We recognized the above needs in our previous
projects, and we think that people are ready for “real life”
propositions. We also recognize the absence of knowledge and new
methodology regarding negotiations of the possible solutions.
