JANIP to sponsor 2nd “Pathways to Peace” academic conference

On April 16-17, 2010, JANIP will sponsor its second international academic conference, “Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: Pathways to Peace”.  The conference will take place at Central Connecticut State University in New Britain, CT.

The goal of the conference is to highlight the contribution that social scientific and humanistic research and scholarship can bring towards peace and reconciliation between Israelis and Palestinians.  Presentations and panels will focus on research examining the factors fueling the longest conflict of modern times, and contributions with instrumental ideas to achieve a just and equitable solution to the conflict.

The conference chairman is Moises F. Salinas, Ph.D., salinasm@ccsu.edu 

Please see the conference homepage for additional details.

About JANIP

JANIP supports a negotiated two-state solution between Israel and Palestine, based on an end to occupation and the right of both peoples to self-determination within recognized, secure borders. As scholars and teachers who are committed to Israel, we seek to inject a voice of realism and moderation into the on-campus debate, which too often has been reduced to a choice between uncompromisingly pro-Israel vs. pro-Palestinian positions.
