FUTURES PROJECT THE FUTURES PROJECT WHICH COMMENCED IN 2018 WITH A ROUND OF WORKSHOPS CONVENED BY THE USMEP AT STOKE PARK IN BUCKINGHAMSHIRE, ENTITLED "MOVING BEYOND EXISTING PARADIGMS ON ISRAEL/PALESTINE," HAS CONTINUED ITS WORK. THE USMEP SERVES IN AN OVERSIGHT, COORDINATING AND GUIDING CAPACITY FOR THE OVERALL PROJECT. THE PROJECT FOCUSES ON RESHAPING THE POLICY AND STRATEGY FRAMEWORKS THROUGH WHICH THE ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN ISSUE IS THOUGHT. THIS SHIFTING OF THE PARAMETERS IS VITAL IN THE CONTEXT OF AN ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN PROBLEM THAT HAS BECOME STUCK, IN A REGION THAT IS TURBULENT WITH GEO-POLITICAL CHANGES AND SHIFTING POWER-BALANCES. THE RISKS RANGE FROM VIOLENT WARS, POPULAR EXPLOSIONS, DESTRUCTIVE CYBER OPERATIONS, HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS AND A POLITICAL QUAGMIRE IN WHICH BOTH THE PROPOSED SOLUTION (LAND-FOR-PEACE AND A TWO-STATE-SOLUTION) AND THE MEANS FOR ACHIEVING IT (NEGOTIATIONS), BECOME SO POLITICALLY DISCREDITED, POPULARLY REJECTED, AND PHYSICALLY UNWORKABLE, THAT CHRONIC AND PERPETUAL CONFLICT HAS BECOME ENTRENCHED AND EMBEDDED. IN ADDITION TO ONLINE CONVENINGS DURING THE YEAR, THE STOKE PARK SYNCHRONIZATION TRACK GROUP MET IN PERSON IN STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN IN OCTOBER 19-21, 2022. TWENTY PARTICIPANTS WERE IN ATTENDANCE FROM THE REGION AND BEYOND. THE MEETING WAS ENTITLED "MOVING BEYOND EXISTING PARADIGMS TO ADVANCE PEACE AND MUTUALLY SUSTAINABLE RIGHTS FOR ISRAELIS AND PALESTINIANS." AS WITH PREVIOUS MEETINGS, THERE WAS NO STRUCTURED AGENDA, BUT RATHER A LESS PRESCRIPTIVE AND MORE FLUID OUTLINE. INSTEAD OF FORMAL PRESENTATIONS, THE FLUID AGENDA FACILITATED DISCUSSIONS WITHIN THE GROUP ENABLING MEMBERS TO BE ENGAGED AND TO GRAPPLE WITH IDEAS THAT EMERGED OVER THE COURSE OF THE 3 -DAY MEETING. THE MEETING TOOK PLACE IN STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN AT THE ROSERSBERG SLOTT FACILITY AND WAS CO-FACILITATED BY THE FOLKE BERNADOTTE ACADEMY (FBA).
