Seeing the “other” – Seeing yourself
Since 20 years FAB continues to create spaces for deep personal encounters between Palestinians, Israelis and Germans, to explore the interwoven historical narratives and present day triangle between the three national groups and the impact it has on our current day to day experience.
All upcoming seminars are still in the planning stage. They will be announced here as soon as new dates have been set.

A Film about the encounter in FAB in 2024 by Gerburg Rohde-Dahl
Palestinians, Israelis and Germans met during a 9-day seminar in Germany, four months after October 7, 2023 and during the ongoing war and destruction of Gaza and in the West Bank. The film gives insight into the difficult and challenging process of a dialogue between “enemies”. Through listening and empathy, personal suffering became tangible in the suffering of the “other” and the potential for dialogue became clearer. This experience opened people’s eyes to the possibility of overcoming the spiral of violence and counter-violence and looking for alternative forms of coexistence based on mutual recognition.
