U.S. Mission to Israel

Description

The ongoing Gaza war has significantly impacted the attitudes of Jews towards Arabs and vice versa, leading to increased fear, anger, and resentment, and resulting in higher levels of distrust. The current environment is marked by heightened hostility and polarization. This funding opportunity aims to support rapid response peacebuilding initiatives in Israel and other affected areas. Grants will be awarded to eligible applicants to support local interventions aimed at preventing violence in mixed communities, assisting youth and teachers in productive communication, supporting community based initiatives that foster dialogue and mutual understanding, countering violent messaging, and promoting post-conflict planning for a non-violent, safe, and just path forward for all communities. Priority Region, Israel and other areas affected by the current Gaza war.
