Annual Report - Seeds of Peace

Annual Report
2006
“I think conflict can be resolved only when the
two sides resort to a dialogue process. They have
to forget their pasts, however bitter it might
have been, for we are all living in the present
and for the future. I feel dialogue and accepting
each other’s faults is the first step toward
building peaceful relations.”

A Message from the President
Dear Friends:
As the new President of this incredible organization, I embrace the opportunity to make a difference
in areas of the world where the need for peace and a strong generation of young leaders is so urgent.
Against this backdrop, I am reminded every day of the founding principles of Seeds of Peace—to
empower leaders of the next generation. We owe it to them to make the darkness of war a distant
memory, and the beacon of light and peace a reality.
At camp, and in our follow-up programs, it is not only our goal, but also our responsibility to provide
these new Seeds with the opportunity to see firsthand that there is indeed a way to resolve conflict
peacefully. When the Seeds return to their native countries, they continue to practice the conflict
resolution skills they learned at camp in the various community outreach programs and alumni
activities the Seeds themselves organize. Seeds of Peace prides itself in providing the next generation
of leaders the chance to experience peace, and to understand the need for mutual respect and
coexistence.

Donors
One of our primary tasks ahead is to create even more ways to integrate and engage our network of
Seeds alumni in the programs and events that take place worldwide. It is a testament to the success of
our organization that many of our Seeds alumni throughout the world are now in powerful positions
in government, business and medicine. Many of them have worked together recently, taking initiative
and planning their own events to promote the message of Seeds of Peace.
I would like to close by thanking all who have supported Seeds of Peace in the past. It is because of
our donors that we are able to achieve success and build an even stronger foundation from which to
grow.
Sincerely,

Seeds of Peace
Facilitators
We are especially proud to report that for the first time in the history of
Seeds of Peace, dialogue sessions were facilitated by Seeds of Peace Alumni.
Professionally-trained facilitators are an essential component to the success of
the Seeds of Peace conflict resolution program at both the International Camp
in Maine and regional programming. Seeds of Peace has employed highly skilled
facilitators—specifically focused on Middle East and South Asian history, culture,
and the conflict—to sit in the dialogue sessions that are held daily at camp.
“I learned the basic techniques
of conflict resolution such as
compassion, listening, and
dialogue. Altogether these
experiences provided me with an
exclusive opportunity to sharpen
my communication, negotiation,
and the debate skills.”
—Tamara- Palestinian Seed

n its 14th summer, Seeds of Peace
welcomed more than 400 new
campers to the “International
Camp” in Maine. The neutral
location, thousands of miles away
from conflict, provided Israeli,
Palestinian, Egyptian, Jordanian,
Indian, Pakistani, Afghani, and
American Seeds with an environment
in which they were able to cultivate
new friendships, perspectives,
understanding, and leadership skills.
For the first time in 2006, Seeds
of Peace employed its own alumni
as facilitators in the Middle East
camp program. They combined this
new expertise with their personal
experiences as former campers to
offer the strongest facilitation and
specialized dialogue session in Seeds
of Peace history. The campers from
2006 emerged at the summer’s end
as motivated leaders, dedicated
to creating a future of peaceful
coexistence.
2
For the first time in Seeds of Peace history, dialogue sessions at camp were facilitated
by Seeds of Peace Alumni.
Peer Support
Group Challenge
Each summer a select group of Seeds graduates return to camp to serve as role
models and provide support to the new campers. The programming for these
campers is focused on advanced dialogue and enhancement of their leadership
skills. Early in each session the fifty-two 2006 Peer Support campers participated
in an Outdoor Leadership Program, a three-day mountain backpacking program
designed to help the group form strong bonds. Their summer experience also
included a trip to Washington, D.C. where they took part in a community
service project at a charter school with children in grades kindergarten through
six, met with high-level politicians and government officials, including Senator
Hillary Clinton (D-NY), and engaged in dialogue with several other members of
Congress at a luncheon hosted by Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA).
The work of the Dialogue Sessions was
reinforced during Group Challenge,
which involves demanding physical and
psychological trust-building activities.
Dialogue group participants had to depend
upon each other to scale climbing walls,
navigate high ropes, and tackle obstacle
courses. The trust and respect these
activities fostered between the participants
maximized the impact of the dialogue
sessions.
“I learned how to listen to others and be open to their opinions and
ideologies, even when those opinions are different than mine. I
came to find that even though many people have different points of
view than me, I can still listen to their opinions and respect them.”
—Oded- Israeli Seed
Dialogue Sessions
The Dialogue Sessions are what the Seeds themselves call the highlight of their
experience at the International Camp. On a daily basis, the Seeds gathered
in small groups for professionally facilitated Dialogue Sessions. During these
sessions, which form the very heart of our unique conflict resolution program,
the youngsters shared their personal stories and laid bare their innermost
feelings. Those discussions included anything from the fear of terrorism, the
humiliation suffered at checkpoints, the anger of having homes destroyed and
loved ones killed, and the conflict between Israel and Hizbullah. As the campers
learned to listen to the perspectives of their new friends, heard the narrative
of “the other side” and started to face their own personal biases, they began
to acquire the understanding, compassion, and mutual respect necessary for
peaceful coexistence.
The hours
spent playing
sports, learning
to swim and
chatting in the
bunk put the
principles of
coexistence into
daily practice.

Through
participation
in a variety of
camp activities,
the values of
teamwork,
respect, and
leadership are
instilled in the
campers.
Camp Activities
Recreational sports and arts activities laid the groundwork for the daily dialogue
sessions. The hours spent playing sports, learning to swim and chatting in the bunk
put the principles of coexistence into daily practice. Ordinary scenes—a game of catch
or late night conversations after lights out—were extraordinary when one realizes the
exchanges were between Israelis and Palestinians or Indians and Pakistanis. Through
participation in a variety of sports, the values of teamwork, respect, and leadership
were instilled in the campers. These cultural activities nurture the Seeds and encourage
them to work together and reflect on their hopes, fears, and shared experience through
these creative processes.
Delegation Leaders
Seeds of Peace offers dynamic educational programming for the adult Delegation
Leaders who accompany the youth to camp. At camp these educators undergo their
own transformative experience to parallel that of their young charges. Following
their summer experience, they become key advocates and institutional liaisons
for Seeds of Peace in their school and home communities. At the same time, they
impart the values and skills of dialogue, tolerance, cross-cultural understanding, civic
engagement, leadership, and the peaceful resolution of conflict to an ever-widening
circle. Delegation Leaders comprise a network of over 300 department heads, school
principals, Ministry of Education officials, professors of education, elementary school,
middle school, and secondary school teachers across the Middle East and South Asia
and the other regions where we serve.
“What I saw at camp changed me. Before camp I really thought
peace was nearly impossible, but when I witnessed things in my
co-existence sessions where people from different sides would be
considerate and listen carefully to each other and absorb what each
other were saying it gave me so much hope.”
International
Programming
I
n order to effectively continue the
momentum built at the International Camp
in Maine, bi-national and multi-national
programs continue throughout the year in our
offices around the world. These programs are
made possible, in large part, by US AID. Our
international offices are located in: Amman,
Cairo, Gaza, Lahore, London, Mumbai,
Jerusalem, Kabul, Ramallah, and Tel Aviv.
“Our friendship was stronger than our
disagreements…I’m sure our life would be
something else if our leaders would be smart
enough to learn from our generation.”
Daniel, Israeli
Interfaith Services
On Fridays, Shortly after lunch,
Muslim Prayer services are
led by a Muslim within the
camp community, usually an
adult delegation leader. The
purpose of this is two-fold:
first, to provide Muslims the
space to worship, and second
to create an opportunity for
non-Muslims to learn and
observe another religion’s
practices. At the beginning of
each service, we also provide
a short explanation about the
service, and worshippers of the
faith make themselves available
to answer questions. Jewish
prayer service is held after
sundown on Friday evening,
and provides the same type of
experience. Christian services
are available Sunday mornings.
Through these opportunities,
Seeds come away with a better
understanding of another
religion they might never have
experienced firsthand.

Middle East
Regional Education Program:
Bi-National Programming
Seeds Bi-National Events: 2006
Over the course of 2006, Seeds of Peace struggled to
maintain bi-national programming for Seeds in the midst of
a tense and unstable political situation. This was a year that
started with Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s massive
stroke and the Hamas victory in the Palestinian elections.
Cross-border contact between Israelis and Palestinians was
rare.
The bravery of parents, Seeds and Delegation Leaders,
and the efforts of staff, made Israeli and Palestinian
participation in International Camp possible. During
the summer of 2006, the light of what camp represents
flickered, and Seeds of Peace kept the momentum of
peace and coexistence alive.
Seeds of Peace worked hard to maintain bi-national programs
for Israeli and Palestinian Seeds. The realities on the ground,
though, made it extremely difficult for Seeds, and even for
staff, to meet legally across the lines of conflict (Palestinians
from the West Bank and Gaza need permission from Israel
to enter Israel; the Israeli government forbids its citizens
from entering most of the West Bank and Gaza). Because
of this situation, Seeds of Peace focused on those who
could physically meet in the eyes of the law—Israelis
and Palestinian residents of Jerusalem. In 2006 there
was a series of dialogue sessions at the Center for
Coexistence in Jerusalem.
And yet the Center was still too empty for too long. In
response to this situation, and after taking into account how
to make the most of limited resources, the decision was
made, in the summer of 2006, to close the Center.
“The most important thing I’ve taken from my
time in Seeds of Peace is that creating peace is
not to stop violence between two neighbors, but
to have security, trust and faith in each other.”
Mohamad, Palestinian
6
Graduate Seeds visited an orphanage in Egypt, bringing the
message of Seeds of Peace.
With so many physical barriers preventing contact,
Seeds from around the world found one another
in cyberspace and on the phone. Threads of
online dialogue continued through SeedsNet, a
communication tool available to all Seeds alumni.
Seeds from all involved countries and conflicts also
worked together to create two editions of The Olive
Branch, the Seeds’ alumni magazine, that represents a
permanent record of cross-border and multi-national
cooperation, the Seeds’ achievement—one that many
far older could barely imagine.
For Seeds who wanted face-to-face bi-national programming
at a more intense pace, there was one chance, thanks in
part to a sponsorship by a Spanish pro basketball team. In
November 2006 fifteen Seeds spent a week in Badalona,
outside Barcelona, to engage in dialogue and to challenge
themselves to go beyond what they experienced at camp.
The problem of how to create bi-national programming for
Israeli and Palestinian Seeds loomed throughout 2006. In the
fall Seeds of Peace established a full-time position dedicated
to this objective.
Focus on Higher
Education for Israeli &
Palestinian Seeds
Mediation and
Negotiation Training
Course
Seeds of Peace realizes the critical
need for its Seeds alumni to
obtain access to higher education,
regardless of availability of resources.
Through a competitive application
process, the Middle Eastern Regional
Scholarship Program, funded
largely by Oprah’s Angel’s Network,
was initiated in the Fall of 2006
to provide funding for 18 Seeds,
equally distributed among male
and female candidates. Applicants
apply for up to $3,000 annually,
which helps cover the tuition costs
at Palestinian and Israeli universities,
fees which are substantially lower
than for American universities.
As part of the Graduate Program for
its alumni, Seeds of Peace developed
a course and coursework to train
Israelis and Palestinians to work
together in developing the skills
necessary to effectively engage in
negotiations of all kinds. The Training
Course contains uni-national and binational components that spanned
over two years of coursework,
training and seminars.
The curriculum includes ten
course modules that introduce
course participants to the
basic skills and techniques of
negotiation and that help them
develop a personal and effective
negotiation style. These sessions
include: Our Own Negotiation
Models; Concepts and Basic
Elements in Negotiation; Stages of
the Negotiation Process; Conducting
the Negotiation—Skills, Strategies
and Techniques; Communication
Skills; Negotiation Pitfalls; Culture,
Gender, and Power Relations; MultiParty Negotiations; and International
Simulation and Feedback.
Two Israeli and two Palestinian
professionals conducted these
courses. In Israel, Michael Tsur and
Ganit Poleg from the Mediation and
Conflict Resolution Institute Jerusalem
served as instructors for the Israeli
uni-national meetings. Palestinian
trainers Khalid Salim, and Rasha
Fityan of the Ta’awon Youth Forum
were the professionals conducting the
Palestinian sessions.
The course’s
final component
was a weeklong bi-national
workshop
and meeting
in London in
March. The
American School
of London hosted
the Palestinian and
Israeli participants,
and the Seeds of Peace alumni spent
one to two hours per day conducting
workshops with the school’s students.
The remainder of their time was spent
in intensive discussions about the
Middle East conflict. The objective
of the course, and particularly of the
week in London, was to produce a
group of Palestinians and Israelis in
their twenties, who have colleagues
from the other side who have been
trained in the same negotiation skills.
This was successful as participants
reported that their discussions
in London about Middle Eastern
politics were the most productive
and constructive that they had ever
experienced. Their shared set of skills
and common approach to dialogue
allowed them to delve further into
the critical issues than ever before.
“In these days of great sorrow, this
is our test. Now we must show a
light in that great darkness that
is surrounding us.”
Yaron, Israeli Seed

Global Outreach
Seeds of Peace inaugurated a
unique day camp that brought
together over 200 eightto-ten year old Palestinians
in Gaza with lessons in
non-violence, forgiveness,
reconciliation, community
service, and cooperation
within Palestinian society.
“I always tell my friends
about Seeds of Peace
and the great times I
had there. I also talk
to them about politics
and tell them that peace
is the only solution to
the conflict, and now
six of my friends are
interested in being
Seeds.”
Amin, Palestinian
Community Outreach
Gaza Children’s Day Camp
Seeds of Peace inaugurated a unique day camp in the summer of 2006 that brought
together over 200 eight-to-ten year old Palestinians in Gaza. In two ten-day sessions,
“Seeds of Understanding Camp” taught non-violence, forgiveness, reconciliation,
community service, and cooperation within Palestinian society. The camp focused on
youngsters from Shajayia, a disadvantaged neighborhood in Gaza. At a time when
the only images out of Gaza are violence and despair, the success of this program
demonstrates that reconciliation and tolerance can still be promoted. At the request
of the parents, children, and the staff who ran the camp, Seeds of Peace hopes to
make this an ongoing program.
Seeds Café
Open to people from all walks of life, the Seeds Cafés provide a welcoming, nonpolitical framework for Israelis and Palestinians to get to know each other as
individuals, by transcending the often charged atmosphere in the region. Aimed at
promoting cultural exchange between Israelis and Palestinians, Seeds Café is held
in Jerusalem and Gaza. Discussions cover different aspect of social and cultural life
in the region, with specific emphasis on the Arab-Israeli issue. For example, at a
Seeds Café in Gaza, forty intellectuals, from academia, politics, UNRWA, medicine,
and education gathered with Seeds to discuss the social and religious aspects of a
peaceful society.
“Seeds Café is neither an academic nor a political platform. It
provides a wonderful opportunity for people to meet on common
ground, to get to know each other, and to talk together.”
—Dorothy Harman, Coordinator of Jerusalem Seeds Café

Seeds of Peace Action Summit
Istanbul Conference
For five days in September, in the aftermath of
the conflict between Israel and Lebanon, Seeds of
Peace brought together thirty of the organization’s
oldest Israeli, Palestinian, Egyptian, and
Jordanian graduates. The Seeds came together
in New York to develop concrete strategies and
initiatives to provide ongoing opportunities for
Arabs and Israelis to work towards a better future
in the Middle East. Their meeting marked the
launch of a new dimension in scope and impact for
Seeds of Peace.
From April 27-30th, 2006, 75 Delegation Leaders from the
Middle East and South Asia, along with invited guests from
peace-building NGOs in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Turkey, and
the United States met in Istanbul for a conference, “Volunteerism,
Peace Building, and the Development of Civic Society.” The conference
aimed to provide members of the Seeds of Peace Delegation Leader
network an opportunity to exchange ideas and to coordinate activities
and projects in their effort to enhance community participation
in civic life, with the goals of promoting tolerance, peaceful
learning environments, critical thinking, dialogue, and the
peaceful resolution of conflict within and between their respective
communities.
Building on the strong foundation of programs
they participated in as teenagers, the Seeds of
Peace Action Summit provided the opportunity
for these older Seeds to play an instrumental
role in shaping programs targeted to university
students and young adult professionals. Divided
into four different working committees (focused
on politics, professional networking, technology
and community outreach), this core group of
SOP alumni charted a plan for increased
opportunities for engagement between
Arab and Israeli Seeds and members of their
broader communities. The programs are already
underway.
Arab Educators Program
2006 marked the conclusion of The Arab Educators Program (AEP):
Building School Environments that Encourage Responsible Citizenship
in Youth. This landmark two-year program (funded by the
Department of State-MEPI and Seeds of Peace) equipped two
groups of Egyptian, Jordanian and Palestinian educators with
curriculum, training methods, resources, and connections to
encourage peaceful learning environments, to cultivate the
values and skills of communication, dialogue, tolerance, civic
engagement, leadership, and the peaceful resolution of conflict.
Thirty Arab educators from the Middle East began the program
in the summer of 2006 by participating in “Building School
Environments that Encourage Responsible Citizenship in
Youth,” a ten-day training seminar at American University
in Washington, D.C. Meanwhile, participants who began the
program in 2005 participated in a follow-up seminar in Cyprus.
The overall program has been extremely successful. From September
2005 until December 2006, the sixty trained “Arab Educators” reached
over 20,000 students, 4,129 parents and community members, and
2,311 additional educators in Egypt, Jordan, and the West Bank, and
Gaza—a far broader reach than ever envisioned.
The Seeds of Peace Action Summit
provided the opportunity for older
Seeds to play an instrumental role
in shaping programs targeted to
university students and young adult
professionals.

South Asia
Bi-National Programming
Seeds of Peace launched an unprecedented coexistence program for Indian
and Pakistani youth in 2001. Since its inception, over one hundred Indian
and Pakistani teenagers have graduated from this program.
Seeds of Peace South Asia Regional Conference
The first Seeds of Peace South Asia Conference was held in January 2006,
in Mumbai, India and included more than 57 Seeds from Afghanistan,
Pakistan and India, as well as 25 adult delegation leaders—all alumni of the
SOP camp program. The event was largely funded through a grant from the
Department of State.
The conference allowed Seeds from the three South Asian countries to
reconvene, take the skills they have learned about dealing with conflict to a
higher level, and to apply their training to dialogue across national divides.
The conference also served to strengthen the SOP network of youth,
schools, and educators across South Asia and to build communication
between these groups and the American Diplomatic staff in India, who also
participated in this unique event.
Indian and Pakistani Homestays
In November 2006, Pakistani Seeds from Lahore, along with eight
educators from a Seeds of Peace partner school in Pakistan, visited their
counterparts in Mumbai, India. This program was designed to allow Indian
and Pakistani participants to visualize peace in South Asia. An in-depth
workshop was held discussing the dire possibility of an India/Pakistan
nuclear exchange. This frank realization allowed each Seed to recommit to
the principles that they gained at the Seeds of Peace Camp in Maine. The
Seeds visited schools throughout the city to demonstrate to hundreds of
students how Indian and Pakistani youth can work together to build a more
hopeful future.

“In the atmosphere of mistrust
that prevails between India and
Pakistan, a nervous finger can
press some sensitive triggers and
then all hell can break loose. This
is why I consider amity between
India and Pakistan to be a necessity,
not an option. And, I believe that
organizations like Seeds of Peace are
the ones who instill the foresight
and give the incentive to young
leaders like us.”
Mira- Pakistani Seed
Education
Seeds of Peace Seminar on
Social Entrepreneurship
Drawing on our older Seed alumni’s commitment
to the mission of Seeds of Peace, and their unique
perspectives and talents, a seminar on Social
Entrepreneurship was organized in February 2006
in New York City bringing together forty Seeds
through a competitive selection process. These
Seeds, all students or graduates of American
universities and representing ten countries from
the Middle East, South Asia, and the Balkans,
discussed the concepts and applications of social
entrepreneurship and generated ideas for initiatives
meant to create positive change on their college
campuses, in their local communities, in their home
countries, and in international areas of interest.
American Seeds
The unique and life-changing experience
American Delegates have while attending
the International Camp in Maine leaves them
energized and motivated to spread what they
learned to others. In the fall of 2006, Seeds of
Peace initiated the American Seeds Program.
The goal of the Program is to enhance the
leadership skills of American teenagers,
improve their understanding as global citizens
and spread the message of Seeds of Peace in
their communities.
An American Coordinating Committee (ACC)
of 9 Seed Alumni was created to serve as
the representative body of American Seeds
alumni. At the Thanksgiving Retreat in Boston,
the Committee members led brainstorming
initiatives to be implemented in 2007, some of
which included a facilitation seminar in April
2007 in Washington D.C, the Big Seed/Little
Seed mentorship program, the creation of a
newsletter for all alumni Seeds living in the
U.S., and a “Seeds of Peace Campus Day”
where Seeds on various U.S. campuses will lead
dialogue initiatives, cultural events, and other
types of community outreach activities.
Summer Internship Program 2006
Summer internships provide Seeds alumni with
critical professional experiences and networking
opportunities that are yet another step on their
path to leadership. The Seeds of Peace Internship
fund, established in the summer of 2006 enabled
15 outstanding Seeds alumni to capitalize on
professional internship opportunities across
the globe. Their work ranged from community
development, to aviation, broadcast journalism,
academic research, finance, banking, healthcare,
and human rights.
Thanksgiving Retreat, Boston
Over the course of a two day/two night retreat in
Boston, 45 American Seeds and 15 International
Seeds (graduates from 2001 to 2006) re-united to
formulate ideas about their programs and identify
effective community outreach initiatives in line with
their interests. Speakers and staff provided these
Seeds with the tools and frame of mind necessary
to carry out these outreach activities, whether at a
high school or college level, while highlighting the
core values and lessons learned through Seeds of
Peace. Plans formulated included campus dialogue
initiatives, leadership roundtables, service events,
and cultural/international events, many of which are
currently being organized.

Seeds of Peace continues to strengthen its role in
relationship-based fundraising, facilitating growth
among major donors and diversifying its sources of
income. Seeds of Peace was awarded $1.1 million in
grants by the State Department and United States
Agency for International Development. Increased
revenue enabled stronger program initiatives. The 2006
conflict between Israel and Lebanon made the execution
of programs more challenging, and thus our need for an
expansion of revenue sources more critical.
In 2006, Seeds of Peace raised $7.9 million of gross
revenue which is $1.7 million or 21% higher than
in 2005. The private sector income grew by 5% or
$300,000 compared to 2005.

standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued
by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States,
Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133
require that we plan and perform our audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit includes examining on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Seeds of Peace, Inc. at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results
of its activities and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated
July 15, 2007, on our consideration of Seeds of Peace, Inc.’s internal control over financial
reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts and grants. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance
with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in
considering the results of our audit.

“Amid the violence and
animosity that surrounds, I
find true hope. For me that
hope is Seeds of Peace. It
always will be.”
Yair, Israeli Seed
“We come to camp to see
what it looks, sounds, and
feels like to live in peace.
This is not youthful idealism.
We do not have a choice.
It’s either co-existence or
no existence. We’ve got to
live together or not at all.”
Palestinian Seed
