After Friday Night services and dinner, Avi Meyerstein will discuss the war between Israel and Hamas and rescuing peace. He is the founder and president of the Alliance for Middle East Peace (ALLMEP). Starting in 2003, Avi brought together dozens of NGOs to build an umbrella coalition that would significantly expand resources, scale up Israeli-Palestinian grassroots partnerships, and create a growing, interconnected community of peacebuilders.
Avi is a former national law firm partner, a business co-founder, and a Fulbright Global Scholar. He is a graduate of Columbia University and Georgetown University Law Center. He and his wife, Dana, live with their three daughters in the Washington, DC area.
