"Peace building from the ground up:
The Basque Country and Northern Ireland"
Jonan Fernandez, Founder of Basque peacemaking NGO Elkarri, Gorka Espiau, Director of Elkarri, and Father Alec Reid, Catholic priest from the Falls Road, Belfast, Northern Ireland.
Elkarri was founded more than a decade ago and has emerged as one of the leading grass roots organizations in Spain dedicated to promoting peace, dialogue and reconciliation among all sectors of Basque society. This visit to New York is Elkarri’s first official visit to the United States since launching their peace initiative in 2001. Father Reid played a key role in the Northern Ireland peace process.
