Between the 26th and 30th of November 2017 Forward Thinking facilitated the visit of an influential Palestinian academic delegation from the Arab American University’s Centre for Conflict Resolution and Development Studies to Belfast and Dublin.
The aim of the visit was threefold: to enable participants to explore the successes and ongoing challenges of the Irish Peace Process, drawing insights into parallels with their own context; to broaden and deepen understanding of the realities of the Irish experience, to support research and teaching on the subject in Palestine; and to develop relationships between Northern Irish, Irish and Palestinian higher education institutions.
