News headlines in January once more brought the Gaza Strip to the fore of international thought as governments and agencies expressed concern over the mounting humanitarian crisis stirring behind, and through, the walls surrounding the Palestinian coastal strip. How do these concerns relate to the lives of people there? What part does the Gaza Strip play in the discussions about final status issues of the Israel-Palestinian conflict? How does violence both from the Gaza Strip on Israel and from Israel on the Gaza Strip impact the life of people in both areas? Join expert voices from the Harvard campus and the Boston area to explore these questions and issues such as human security, history, politics and health as they relate to the region.
