The aim of this study is to examine the contribution of the mixed women’s groups (Jewish and Arab) on the relationship between the two nations in daily life and in the future. A derivative of the study is then the following questions: 1) Can associations of Arab-Jewish women groups influence peoples’ political views and opinions through their activities, in a manner that will construct a desire to share present and future life? 2) Is there a difference between women’s associations and those of men? And 3) Is the impact of separate associations of Arabs or Jews similar to that of joint ones?
