The Institute for Advanced Studies at the University of Sao Paulo (IEA-USP) promoted the debate “Israel-Palestine: possible dialogues, how Science can help to build bridges”. The speaker was political activist Gershon Baskin, and the discussion was conducted by many luminaries at the university, including Prof Daniel Sturm and Prof Guilherme Plonsky. I was invited to share my personal experience during the First Israel-Arab Medical and Scientific meeting held in Dubai in 2021, during which participants received a certificate of recognition from the Israeli Society for the Advancement of Women’s Health.
I believe that Science is without borders and can foster approximation between high-ranked intellectual individuals in each Society. It can act as a bridge to unite people with similar goals toward well-being, health and development.
