The Jerusalem Old City Initiative: Sustainable Governance Solutions

The Jerusalem Old City Initiative was conceived by three former Canadian diplomats in the wake of the failure of the Camp David talks in 2000. It arose out of deep interest in the profound symbolic needs embodied in the Old City and in an attempt to find functional governance alternatives that would meet the needs of Israelis, Palestinians and believers across the world. JOCI's directors view their work as a "rolling draft" open to new ideas and insights.
