Join us for a unique dialog event: Hamza Howidy (on the right), a Palestinian activist and journalist from Gaza who speaks candidly about his experiences with Hamas and is now committed to dialogue with Israelis, and Shay Dashevsky (on the left), who was born in Israel.
Together, they demonstrate how personal stories and interpersonal relationships can challenge prejudices, fight extremism, and broaden horizons.

A Q&A with the speakers will follow.

Shay Dashevsky is the project manager of „I Am From Israel, Ask Me Anything“ and a key contributor to „Voices from Gaza and Israel“. Through his work, Shay is committed to combating extremism by creating spaces for honest conversation and human connection.
