The Joint Memorial Day Ceremony, organized by Combatants for Peace and The Parents Circle Families Forum, is one of the largest Israeli-Palestinian jointly organized peace events in history. It provides a unique opportunity for Israelis and Palestinians to grieve together and stand strong in demanding an end to the occupation and ongoing violence. This event, which will occur live in  Jerusalem, will be live-streamed on campus where members of the Notre Dame Community and beyond will gather to lament, to remember, and to imagine a different path forward.
