Middle East

Mennonite Central Committee's Middle East advocacy grows out of 60 years of work in the region.

Among MCC's advocacy concerns are:

• a just resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict which allows all to live in peace and security;
• refugee and displaced people's needs;
• religious freedoms;
• respect for human rights;
• disarmament;
• highlighting the voices of Iraqis as the U.S. withdraws troops and continues reconstruction;
• diplomacy to resolve differences between the U.S. and Iran.

In Christ, God can and has shattered the dividing wall of hostilities (Ephesians 2:14) - even long-standing ones like those in the Middle East.
