| The online Games for Change Festival is linking with the Tribeca Film Festival to promote peace and creativity
A decade ago Asi Burak developed a video game designed to encourage opposing parties in the Israel-Palestine dispute over land to better understand even empathise with each others' point of view.

It is time to stop grieving and find an alternative. Continue reading... |
