Événements

La pierre angulaire du travail du CIC est son programme d'événements et nos sections organisent plus de 150 événements par an dans des villes de tout le pays. Les événements organisés par nos sections donnent aux membres l'occasion de s'engager directement dans des questions mondiales qui recoupent souvent des préoccupations locales. Les événements du CIC prennent des formes très diverses, allant des conférences universitaires et des débats d'experts aux assemblées publiques et aux soirées au pub.

Since the signing of the Oslo Accords in the mid ‘1990’s, the international consensus has been that the solution to the Israel/Palestine conflict lies in creating two states – a Palestinian one and an Israeli one, side by side. But there have been no negotiations since Netanyahu came to power, and there have been no elections on the Palestinian side for over 16 years, leaving the Palestinian Authority with little legitimacy. And now with the continued expansion of the settlements, many are saying that a two-state solution is no longer possible. But hopes for a one-state solution seem wildly optimistic.

Speakers:

Jon Allen, former Canadian ambassador to Israel, feels that the two-state solution is imperiled, but it can still be saved if there is the will on both sides to see it happen.

Peter Larson, Chair of the Ottawa Forum on Israel/Palestine, argues that the only way to ensure a stable and secure future for Israelis and Palestinians is a regime of democracy based on equal rights for everyone from the “river to the sea”.
