Amos Perlmutter Memorial Lecture with Tzipi Livni 2/7/22

Tzipi Livni, former Israeli Vice Prime Minister, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Justice, will deliver American University's School of Public Affairs 2022 Amos Perlmutter Memorial Lecture, “Israel as a Jewish Democratic State: Vision and Challenges”. Ms. Livni will discuss what it means to be both a Jewish and democratic state, and why the concept of “two states for two peoples” supports this vision. Livni has served in eight different cabinet positions throughout her career, setting the record for most government roles held by an Israeli woman. She served as a member of the Israeli National Security Cabinet and the “security trio.” Livni is known for her efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and was Israel’s chief negotiator for peace between Israel and the Palestinians during the last two rounds of negotiations.
