What Is IPHL

 

.
Investing for Peace in the Holy Land is an organization initially started by Jewish, Christian, and Muslim people who, despite many differences, agreed to work together to support peacemaking efforts between the Israelis and Palestinians going on in the Palestinian Territories. As a result of these initial organizing efforts, IPHL was founded.  The goal of IPHL is to encourage the people of Western Washington to learn about and provide support for some of the Palestinian  Israeli organizations currently working in the West Bank for a just political settlement. Having identified and researched many such groups, IPHL chose the following four organizations to publicize and seek support for.

All for Peace Radio
Eco Peace Friends of the Middle East
Healthcare Training Program
Parent's Circle/Families Forum
