Resetting the Table
Resetting the Table (RTT) is a political mediation organization. RTT uses a transformative mediation methodology to help participants discuss contentious issues, and to teach them to lead discussions about these issues by seeking to listen to and understand other viewpoints.[1] HistoryResetting the Table was co-founded by Melissa Weintraub,[2] a rabbi and previously founding director of Encounter, a Jewish organization that creates educational programs and experiences to enhance the understanding of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict for Jewish Americans,[3] and Eyal Rabinovitch, former sociology professor at Wesleyan University.[4] Created with seed funding from UJA-Federation of New York, RTT was established as an independent organization in 2014.[5] References
