Dozens of Israelis held a preliminary meeting at the Charney Center in preparation for a Congress of the People to take place on July 22, 2016. This will be the largest Congress to date, taking place in the center of Tel Aviv, bringing together 250 Israelis and 250 Palestinians. The participants will attempt to come to a peace agreement.

The hope is that if the political establishment can not come to terms, the people might show them the way.
