He has worked in interfaith dialogue and relations for decades in the Holy Land with Yakar and YESODOT in Jerusalem\, Hebrew University\, as a Co-Founder and Co-Director of Anwar Al-Salaam Lights of Peace Society in Nazareth\, and in many programs with the Abrahamic Reunion\, hosting the 2017 Multifaith Iftar Dinner. He is currently a fellow at the Hartman Institute.\n\nRabbi Shraga Bar-On\, Hartman Institute\n\n\nRabbi Dr. Shraga Bar-On is the Director of the Kogod Research Center for Contemporary Jewish Thought and the David Hartman Center for Intellectual Excellence\, and a lecturer of Talmud and Jewish Thought at Shalem College.\n\nAt the David Hartman Center\, he is responsible for the advanced training of aspiring public intellectuals through the Beit Midrash for Israeli Rabbis\, the David Hartman postdoctoral fellowship\, and the Maskilot fellowship for women pursuing their doctorate. His research in Jewish philosophy and identity addresses a wide range of eras and topics: Second Temple literature\, Mishnaic and Talmudic scholarship\, medieval Jewish literature\, early Zionism\, and contemporary Jewish identity. His books and other works have been published in academic\, popular\, and educational contexts.\n\n\n Druze Sheikh Yunes Amasha\n\nSheikh Amasha\, a native of the town of Ussefiya in the north of Israel\, is a Druze religious leader. As Imam of his community\, Sheikh Amasha is responsible for conducting religious rituals. He is also a member of the Supreme Druze Religious Council in Israel\, headed by spiritual leader Sheikh Mowafaq Tarif.\n\nSheikh Amasha\, one of the Druze members of Beit Morasha’s Municipal Forum for Interfaith Leaders from Mixed Cities\, has now been appointed to the important position of Forum Coordinator.\n\n\n\n\n\nAsked why he had originally joined the Forum\, Sheikh Yunes replied: “The Druze are a peace-loving people\, favoring any initiative that promotes relations based on tolerance\, understanding and acceptance of others. Personally\, having lived all my life in a mixed town\, and often working with members of other communities\, I have come to know Israelis from all ethnicities. Always regarding them as my brothers and sisters in humanity\, I understand the great importance of preserving good relations between the different faiths.”\n\nSheikh Amasha believes that the Municipal Forum for Interfaith Leaders from Mixed Cities serves a critical function: its members become acquainted with each other’s faiths and customs\, and also learn from one another’s experience as faith leaders\, especially in addressing the burning issues of present-day Israeli society.\n\nFinally\, Sheikh Amasha asserts that “The Forum serves as an example for members of all ethnic groups\, demonstrating that despite our different faiths\, we can all live together in peace and brotherhood.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLana Shukha Nseir\, AR Women’s Peacebuilding Program\n\nI live in Nazareth where I am an elementary school teacher and I am also a member at the Greek Orthodox Community Council.  I have been in many projects with the Abraham Reunion organization\, for many long years\, and recently I am part of the beginning of a new project for educators.\n\n\n\n \nHanan Halabi\, AR Young Peacebuilder\n\nHanan is 19 years old\, from Daliat-Al Carmel in the North of Israel\, and a member of the Druze faith community.
