Join Jenan, a Palestinian from the West Bank; Tamar, a Jewish Israeli; and Shams, an Arab Israeli, as they travel across the United States, as part of Tomorrow’s Women’s Young Leader Speaking Tour. These three young changemakers will engage with U.S. audiences of all ages and backgrounds, sharing their powerful, often heartbreaking journeys and speaking out against the unending conflict – at venues in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York. United by their shared quest for peace, justice, and equality, these young women will speak at synagogues, high schools, youth organizations, leading universities including Stanford and UCLA, public spaces, and private homes offering an inspiring alternative to the wave of radicalization sweeping the region and a glimpse at, the powerful role young women can play in the peace movement.
Their final stop will be at the United Nations in New York City. Jenan, Tamar, and Shams will speak at the NGO CSW67 Forum, an advocacy platform for the empowerment of women and girls held in conjunction with the UN’s Commission on the Status of Women’s annual two-week summit.
“It’s such an honor to have the opportunity to represent my country and my people at the United Nations.” Jenan (28) Palestinian from the West Bank
