Our panel of regional specialists will provide this analysis through an update on the politics of the Middle East (Dr Alaa Tartir), political trends and life in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Inès Abdel Razek), political currents in Israel (Dr Shir Hever), and Canada’s relationship with the Palestinians and Middle East Peace Process (Dr Jeremy Wildeman).
Our webinar will address the interrelated issues of short-term pandemic relief, medium-term recovery and, in the long term, reshaping the world economy. There are choices at every stage, with implications for distributional equity among and within countries. There can be no return to the "old normal"--the world has changed, and the climate crisis has intensified. Are there fundamental opportunities to reshape policy at the national level? And can the international rules of the game, affecting trade, investment and finance, be reshaped to build a more equitable and sustainable world?
We are delighted to announce the details of our grand finale webinar in the Group of 78 six-session series of Webinars on the Future of UN Peacekeeping in the Transition to a More Peaceful World: Why UN peace operations are critical and need to be expanded. The focus, as promised, will be on key recommendations for action by governments – especially our own, by parliamentarians and by civil society. We promise a lively, thought provoking, action-oriented discussion and question time!
