On the heels of memorials and reflections marking the ten-year anniversary of 9/11, the Euphrates Institute offers a new way forward in America’s relationship with the Middle East. The Summit will bring together visionaries on global issues and an audience of change agents to create a platform for paradigm shifts on the Middle East. Joined by Euphrates’ Warriors for Peace®, the next generation of peace and sustainability leaders focused on the Middle East, participants in the Summit will explore ideas for progress and new levels of thinking in this post-9/11 era.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; white-space: normal; "><br></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; white-space: normal; "> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; white-space: normal; "><br></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; white-space: normal; ">The Summit takes place at Euphrates’ partnering institution, Principia College, a four-year liberal arts college with a century-old institutional history. The National Historic Landmark campus is perched on the Mississippi River bluffs about 30 miles north of St. Louis. The two-day Summit, Thursday and Friday, October 27th and 28th, will include three sessions designed around Euphrates’ IIT approach – to Inform, Inspire, and Transform. An expert-led, in-depth overview of the status of the Middle East – West relations will kick things off Thursday morning for the Inform session, followed by a look at inspiring models of peace, coexistence, and cooperation from the globe’s most successful peacemakers in the Inspire session. Friday will focus on “bringing the ideas home” as peacemakers provide not only the reasons, but the tools for each one of us to heal divides, take personal responsibility, and commit to action in the Transform session.</span><p style="font-family: Helvetica; white-space: normal; ">Speakers at the Summit include Dr. James Zogby, head of the Arab American Institute, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Iran Ambassador John Limbert, Rev.
