| Summary/Abstract |
As a Palestinian woman living in East Jerusalem, I often find myself with the same group of women when participating in activities related to peacebuilding and Track II negotiations. I often ask myself, why it is that in one of the most contested cities in the world, those who are most affected by the political realities are also the most marginalized and least represented. I refer, not only to the more than 350,000 Palestinian residents of East Jerusalem but rather, more specifically, to the women who make up almost 50% of that number.
