Sipur-Hikaya was founded in 2017 by entrepreneurs, academics, and teachers who took part in writing the book “Side by Side: Parallel Histories of Israel-Palestine”. The name of our non-profit organization consists of the hebrew word for story, “Sipur,” and “Hikaya,” which means story in Arabic. Two stories = two narratives.
We believe that the solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will come from a long process which requires the people of both nationalities, Israeli and Palestinian, to truly believe in peace as a moral obligation and push their political leaders to reach historical agreements.
