Euphrates Summit: Our World Beyond 9/11
Principia College, Elsah, IL


Announcing a groundbreaking event, the Euphrates Summit: Our World Beyond 9/11, held at Principia College this October 27th and 28th, which takes its theme from Einstein: "Problems cannot be solved at the same level of thinking at which they were created." 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.

Speakers at the Summit include Congressman Mark Siljander, author of A Deadly Misunderstanding and founder of Trac5, Dr. James Zogby, head of the Arab American Institute, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Iran Ambassador John Limbert, Rev. Can. Charles Gibbs, head of United Religions Initiative, former SEAL Team Commander Dick Hoffmann, Manal Omar, current Middle East Programs director at USIP, Tom Quiggin, a court-qualified expert on terrorism, Israeli peacemaker Dr. Yehuda Stolov, and our first Euphrates "Visionary of the Year" recipient, Sami Awad, executive director of Palestinian non-profit Holy Land Trust, among over a dozen other speakers from the Middle East, the U.S., and Canada.
