Everyone is welcome to attend a free panel discussion:

“Building Trust and Understanding: An Evening with the Arab-Jewish Dialogue”

WHEN: March 7th, 2011

            7:00 pm to 8:30 pm

WHERE: Convocation Hall

A panel of 4 members of the Arab-Jewish Dialogue (including Co-Chairs, Ab Freig and Howard Morry, and members Jim Carr and Ossama AbouZeid) will participate. They will tell the story of their group, and in doing so, talk about how they’ve dealt with some of the more contentious issues in the Middle East in an effort to expand what they refer to as their Arab-Jewish “circle of trust” here in Winnipeg.

UWinnipeg President and Vice-Chancellor, Dr. Lloyd Axworthy will provide introductions and Dr. Marilou McPhedran, Principal, Global College will act as MC for the evening.
