ABSTRACT

This chapter presents the various partners, both visible and invisible, involved in the project, followed by a close reading and brief evaluation of two principal project outputs: a DVD video and a booklet. It describes the principal transformations of single participants and the group as a whole that took place during the project period. The Palestinian women were generally older then most of the Israeli women, and often involved in official political groups, mainly Fatah, but not necessarily in feminist organisations. Special attention is to be reserved for examining the role and changing function over time of the Italian women's association Orlando, the third partner in the project. The chapter concludes with a brief theoretical discussion of what seems to be the most important achievement of the project: the development of an innovative women's perspective on conflict resolution and peace processes.
