The Lab/Shul community, in partnership with  New Israel Fund and ALBI, is honored to invite two extraordinary peacemakers to join us for FACE TO FACE – a special program on the eve of the Day of Atonement.

Aziz Abu Sarah and Maoz Inon feel the loss and pain of October 7th and the carnage in Gaza and the West Bank that has followed especially keenly: both have lost family to the conflict.

Since October 7th, the two have appeared on various international forums regarding their partnership in establishing peace between Israelis and Palestinians. Earlier this year they traveled together to Verona, Italy to meet Pope Francis and share their vision for the future: one where Israelis and Palestinians can move forward and live side by side.

  • Aziz Abu Sarah is a Palestinian peacebuilder, entrepreneur, and international speaker. He is the co-founder of InterAct International and MEJDI Tours, and the former executive director of the Center for World Religions, Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution at George Mason University.
  • Maoz Inon is an Israeli social entrepreneur and peace activist. He has founded several tourism initiatives in Israel and in the Middle East, including the Fauzi Azar Inn and Abraham Hostel and Tour brands.
  • Listen to their TED talk here.
