#7 Gaza: Reconstruction and Responsibility — In Conversation with Tahani Abu Daqqa
Tahani Abu Daqqa is a Palestinian entrepreneur from Gaza and former Palestinian Minister of Youth, Sport, and Culture. She is the founder of Gaza Life Power, an organization working on renewable energy and community development in Palestine. She is a Gaza War survivor and has been displaced since April 2024.
For more than four decades, Tahani Abu Daqqa has been involved in building women’s cooperatives and developing local economic and social infrastructure in Gaza under conditions of occupation, blockade, and repeated military escalation.
In 2023, she completed a major solar energy project intended to provide more stable electricity to parts of Gaza. Within the first week after October 7, this installation was destroyed.
This Candid Conversation on Palestine, Israel & Europe offers a detailed, first-hand perspective on Gaza - not only as a place of conflict, but as a society shaped by decades of resilience, organizing, and negotiation. It also outlines concrete reflections on what a constructive European role could look like, and why lasting security for Israelis and Palestinians is ultimately interdependent.

#6 Combatants for Peace: Nonviolent Resistance & Collective Liberation - With Sulaiman Khatib
For the sixth Candid Conversation on Palestine, Israel, and Europe, we are joined by Sulaiman Khatib, co-founder of Combatants for Peace - a grassroots movement built by former Palestinian and Israeli fighters who chose joint nonviolence to work toward ending the occupation and creating a just, shared future.
Sulaiman reflects on his personal transformation from armed resistance and a decade in prison to rejecting military solutions and zero-sum thinking. The conversation traces the history, beliefs, and ideas behind Combatants for Peace, explores their current work and projects, and examines what it takes to open up to the narrative of the “other” while staying grounded in one’s own. Sulaiman highlights nonviolence not only as a political strategy but as a way of living and a path toward collective liberation. The discussion also addresses the importance and impact of youth education in Palestine and Israel, the challenges the movement faced after October 7, and the forms of international support that are most needed today.
