Adi DaganMy standing at checkpoints doesn't directly further peace, but there are different stages involved in the process. Currently the groups I'm involved with and the kind of work I do oppose the occupation. We haven't yet reached the stage of working towards peace.
As spokeswoman for Machsom Watch, Adi Dagan's role is to focus Israeli and international attention on the issue of Israeli-controlled checkpoints in the West Bank. Machsom [Checkpoint] Watch is a group of Israeli women who monitor activity at checkpoints. Adi spent two years as a volunteer, stationed once a week at Kalandia, the main checkpoint between Ramallah and Jerusalem. She is also the media coordinator for the Coalition of Women for Peace.
