Is There A Shared Future For The Jewish And Arab Citizens Of Israel?

A distinguished panel of Jewish, Muslim and Christian Israelis consider whether Israel can come to grips with what Israelis across the political spectrum believe to be the most critical domestic issue - the prospect of a shared future for all of its citizens, an issue that goes to the heart of its future as a secure and democratic nation. Panelists include: Orna Lin, a renowned civil rights attorney and the first woman Chair of the Israel Bar Association Council; Mohammad Darawshe, Co-Executive Director of The Abraham Fund - Israel and a recognized leader of the Arab community in Israel; and Fadoul Mazzawi, a Christian Arab, founder and CEO of Mazzawi Advertising Group in Israel, and the Director of the Israeli Advertising Agencies Association. Moderating will be Amnon Be'eri Sulitzeanu, Co-Executive Director of The Abraham Fund - Israel and formerly senior advisor in Israel's Ministry of Absorption.
