A Nobel Laureate on Ending the Conflict in the Middle East

Can the lessons learned in negotiating the peace settlement in Northern Ireland be utilized to harness peace in the Middle East? In this talk, Trimble shares the monumental lessons he learned in negotiating The Belfast Agreement, showing us how they may hold the key to ending the similar conflict between Palestine and Israel, between the Sunnis and the Shiites. How do warring factions of different political and religious beliefs, with generations of violence toward each other, move toward disarmament; and how do they do it with words, not weapons? What needs to be the catalyst for change, and how do we begin? Trimble brings his political acumen and humanitarianism to a delicate subject matter.
