Ulfat Haider was born into conflict - a Palestinian in Israel. It was on a trip to Antarctica, after a weeks long journey, that Ulfat realized the power of going outdoors and facing challenging conditions. Cold, tired, on the top of a mountain they named the Mountain of Israeli-Palestinian Friendship, a team of Arabs and Jews found a shared experience. After this trip, Ulfat decided to lead expeditions with Arab and Jewish youth and women. They hike, camp, climb, and cook together on adventures in the Alps and Himalayas. She's promoting a peaceful coexistence by creating safe spaces for conversations. In addition to these expeditions, she's program manager of Beit Ha’Gefen, an Arab and Jewish cultural center, and a member of the Access Water team.
