TEDxJaffa - Carol Daniel Kasbari - Israel-Palestine: Going Beyond the Dialogue of Words

In her moving TEDxJaffa talk, Carol Daniel Kasbari calls for the people of Israel and Palestine (or any area in conflict, for that matter) to move beyond words - and to engage in a dialogue of actions.

Carol has been consultant for local and international change organizations and facilitator and trainer for conflict mediation for 17 years. She worked with USAID programs as a manager for promoting professional media and she is the co-founder and director of the Israeli Palestinian Media Forum (IPMF) and a consultant for UNESCO's division of Freedom of Expression in the region. In 2003 she produced the only co-production ever between Israeli and Palestinian official TV stations, a documentary "One the Road to Dialogue" which was co-broadcasted simultaneously on PBC and Channel 2 to give a message of tolerance and hope in the heat of the Intifada. She has written several papers and op-ed articles in several languages on the Israeli Palestinian conflicts that were published in local and international newspapers. In addition, she holds a Masters degree in NGO Administration and Public from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Carol was born and raised in a Palestinian family from Nazareth and is a married mother of two boys, living currently in East Jerusalem.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
