The ALLMEP Affinity Groups initiative provides a unique platform for peacebuilders to collaborate, share knowledge, and tackle mutual challenges across different fields of expertise. By bringing together professionals from various sectors, the Affinity Groups foster a collaborative environment where participants can exchange ideas, support each other’s work, and develop solutions to the complex issues affecting peacebuilding efforts. The program transitions from networking and sharing challenges to producing actionable policy recommendations that shape decisions on peacebuilding, with a focus on bottom-up solutions. The groups serve as a bridge between grassroots efforts and policymakers, advocating for strategies that directly address the root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
