Welcome to the website of the
Jerusalem Hug Foundation
The Jerusalem Hug Foundation is a global grassroots movement, which inspires and mobilizes people in Israel, Palestine and everywhere else, to take the path to peace and choose a fair and just future for both peoples.
This is what we do:
1. Organizing Peace Events:
Jerusalem Hug
From 2007 till 2015 we organized the annual peace event 'Jerusalem Hug', together with peacemakers from Jerusalem. Israelis and Palestinians- as well as visitors from abroad shared their love for Jerusalem and their wish for peace.
The initiators of the Jerusalem Hug consider the city of Jerusalem the most important location to develop a peace process between Palestinians and Israelis. It is a unique place in the Middle East,
where Israelis and Palestinians live and work closely together.
If there is any chance to reconcile Palestinians and Israelis, it will be in Jerusalem.
When the inhabitants of Jerusalem open their hearts to one another and consider their fellow residents as equals, they will not deem the disparities between them desirable anymore.
And when there is the intention to live together in an undivided Jerusalem, it will also be possible to make it happen throughout the Holy Land! Palestinians and Israelis: two peoples, two nations, living side by side in one country without borders as a federation.
with Jerusalem as their capital.
The Jerusalem Hug Foundation supports the philosophy of the Pa-il movement
and strives to realize a Federation of Palestine-Israel
through information, meetings, and events.
3. Supporting Empowerment of the Women:
Connecting Palestinian and Israeli Women
International Women's Day in Jerusalem
The initiators of the Jerusalem Hug, Dvora Pearlman and Rob Schrama, visited and advised the women's organizations and their representatives, during the years they organized the Jerusalem Hug.
At the International Women's Day in Jerusalem in 2016 Palestinian and Israeli women jointly hold
a press conference about United Nations Resolution 1325.
It states that women worldwide should have more opportunities to take important positions
in politics and in social institutions.
The women in Jerusalem are calling for the women to be brought to the negotiating table for peace now! They want to reinforce this endeavor by organizing marches of women. Dvora Pearlman and Rob Schrama offered the women a burning candle for Light and assured the women present the support of the Jerusalem Hug Foundation in organizing these women's marches.
Women Wage Peace March 2017
Women Wage Peace was established after Israel’s 50-day offensive against Gaza in the summer of 2014. On Oktober 9, 2017 thousands of Israeli and Palestinian women marched through a desert landscape nearby Jericho. They are calling for politicians to find a solution to end the Middle East conflict.
The march was meant to "give voice to those tens of thousands of Israeli Jewish and Arab women and their Palestinian partners, who hand in hand together took this road towards peace."
The Jerusalem Hug Foundation was one of the co-organisers.
My Commandments
My Commandments
Together with Palestinians and Israeli peacemakers, we developed a solution to their endless conflict: 'PA-IL', a society for two peoples and states, with Jerusalem as its capital
and with an equal and just distribution of all land Between The River And The Sea.
The Jerusalem Hug Foundation invites everyone to join us in realizing this ideal.
For this purpose, the founder of our organization, Rob Schrama, donates 3 large artworks
he created. He will digitally cut them into millions of pieces that will be shared as NFTs and thus contribute to the financing of the peace process between Palestinians and Israelis.
In twelve placards, Rob Schrama describes and illustrates how and when
peace could be achieved between Palestinians and Israelis and invites everyone to join.
Initiatives
Together with Palestinians and Israelis we developed a solution for their endless conflict: 'PA-IL', which stands for the desired form of coexistence of Palestine-Israel: two peoples and two states, with Jerusalem as the capital and with an equal and just division of the land between the River and the Sea.
As their ambassador, Rob Schrama supports this perspective of peace and invites the entire world to realize this ideal together. For this, He is giving away 3 large works of art, which will be processed into NFTs before being donated; digital art that will be used to (co-)finance my peace plans.
However, this peace will begin in Amsterdam, with the creation of a pyramid of light above the IJ on September 21, 2025. Although this will be presented as an Amsterdam project, to symbolize the interconnection of all the city's inhabitants during its 750th anniversary, the transfer of this human energy through laser light to the Middle East, on the International Day of Peace, will have an enormous impact.
