The need for a Jewish-Arab dialogue was stressed here by Mrs. Nina Di-Nur, a survivor of Auschwitz, and a noted public figure in Israel. Mrs. Di-Nur, who was addressing a gathering of the Anglo-Israel Association, appealed for the establishment of a British movement to encourage Arab-Jewish cooperation. She said that in her campaign for the establishment of such movements in various countries, she had encouraging support from Jews and Arabs as well as others. Mrs. Di-Nur added that on the campus of Haifa University there was now an institute for the study of Jewish-Arab relations which is headed by noted scientists, and experts in the behavioral sciences. This institute had been designed to prepare source material in order to help those engaged in the actual work of rapprochement between the two peoples.
