Speakers:
Gil Murciano (Atkin Fellow, Israel)
Muna Dajani (Atkin Fellow, Palestine)
Muna’s paper explores a new conflict resolution tool involving environmental peace building. It discusses the possibility of creating a peace park in the disputed area of the Golan Heights, while highlighting Israeli and Syrian concerns over water resource control and territorial sovereignty.
Gil’s paper will look at the role of national honour on Israel’s leadership and strategic decision making during the Second Lebanon War. It will also consider Israel’s need to inflict ‘counter-humiliation’ on Hezbollah during this period.
