In the Space Between – Tuly

In The Space Between – Introduction

This is In the Space Between, a series of conversations produced by the FIFDH, International Film Festival and Forum on Human Rights [https://fifdh.org/en/] in Geneva. In March 2025, the Festival hosted for the first time a workshop led by mental health professionals from both sides of a long-lasting divide, the Israeli - Palestinian conflict. Every year, the Festival gives a prominent space to this conflict, denouncing the illegal occupation, the state of apartheid and the international paralysis that couldn’t prevent, nor stop, the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Thisspecific event was different from the others, with this workshop, we wanted to take a step on the side, move away from the political chaos and allow some space for healing. Conscious of the conflict's psychological toll and collective trauma, the FIFDH invited mental health professionals from Israel and Palestine to lead an EMDR workshop, sharing their experiences to foster listening, reflection, and emotionalhealing. The result is In the Space Between, a series of intimate conversations with individuals who took part in that workshop. Each episode offers a quiet window into one life — one story of navigating inner conflict, personal transformation, and the messy beauty of human complexity. This podcast is about people. We hope it will bring a small contribution to the field of those who are still trying to build peace, in a region that has been experiencing the horrors of war and injustice for too long.
