ONEVOICE MOVEMENT
Since the official inception of the PeaceWorks Foundation in 2002, its OneVoice movement has boldly undertaken a grassroots approach to engage Palestinians and Israelis toward greater civic involvement. Rooted within its methodology to combat violent extremism and the fatalistic philosophy which fuels it, the OneVoice movement is being driven and shaped by the citizens within it. Spawned during a time of hopelessness and frustration following the collapse of the Oslo process, the OneVoice movement strives to empower the moderate majority of Israelis and Palestinians to take a more active, assertive role toward resolving the conflict.
WHO AM I?
The PeaceWorks Foundation is working to implement an innovative video diary exchange project titled Who Am I?. OneVoice's offices in Israel and in the Palestinian territories will set up a network of young Israeli and Palestinian video diarists from a cross-section of their societies who will share their stories on a weekly basis with a matched counterpart, allowing them to capture their lives and stories as they reveal their struggles, joys, hopes and dreams to their video-pals. The goal of the project is to establish a long-term rapport that will deepen understanding, humanize 'the other,' and potentially provide opportunities for cooperation.
PEACEWORKS PRIZE
The latest PeaceWorks Foundation initiative is called the PeaceWorks Prize. This Prize will be annually awarded to an individual from the Middle East under the age of 40. The purpose of the Prize is to recognize and highlight the positive contributions from the region and to inspire young people to bring light into the world. It is also meant to counter the hero status of negative role models and militant extremists by instead rewarding those that contribute positively to their people and to the world
