Seven young Israelis and seven young Palestinians have gathered in a monastery in the hills above Jerusalem to begin a six-month photographic dialogue.
Side-by-Side, a joint project between UK-based charity PhotoVoice and the Palestinian-Israeli charity Parents' Circle/Families Forum, aims to give children their own voice.
It may be a bizarre idea - having fun learning photography in the midst of such violence - but the participants, all of whom have lost family members to the conflict, believe it has serious potential.
