Join us on our next UPZ National Conference Call this Thursday evening, January 29, from 7:30-8:30 as we discussing our Spring 2009 campus initiative. Your feedback is essential to us and we’d love to have your input on how best we can move forward as a movement.

Also, a great friend of UPZ - Mr. Daniel Levy - will be joining us to chat about Gaza, the impact of Obama’s presidency as well as the upcoming Israeli elections.

During the Barak Government, he worked in the Prime Minister’s Office as special adviser and head of the Jerusalem Affairs unit under Minister Haim Ramon. He also worked as senior policy adviser to former Israeli Minister of Justice, Yossi Beilin. He was a member of the official Israeli delegation to the Taba negotiations with the Palestinians in January 2001, and previously served on the negotiating team to the “Oslo B” Agreement from May to September 1995, under Prime Minister Rabin. In 2003, he worked as an analyst for the International Crisis Group Middle East Program. Daniel was the lead Israeli drafter of the Geneva Initiative and prior to joining The Century Foundation and New America Foundation was directing policy planning and international relations at the Geneva Campaign Headquarters in Tel Aviv.
