ICAHD to Hold Forum in Old City of Jerusalem
JERUSALEM, February 27, 2007 (WAFA) - The Israeli Committee against House Demolitions (ICAHD) said it will hold its next English-language monthly lecture and discussion series in the "Last Wednesday Forum" on Wednesday, 28th February in the Old City of Jerusalem.
ICAHD said in a press release that the forum is intended to strengthen the dialogue between representatives of the international community and important voices within the critical peace and human rights community in Israel - voices of Israeli NGOs, activist groups and academics seldom heard in official dialogue.
ICAHD said it will meet the veteran archaeologist, Meir Ben-Dov, field director of the Jerusalem excavations following the 1967 war and former professor at the Hebrew University, to discuss the excavations and the building of the Mugrabi bridge as well as for a field excursion followed by a question and answer session.
