Encompass Trust

Who we are

We envision a world where all people live in peace, with freedom, dignity, equality and justice. This is a world where mutual understanding of a common humanity would overcome the fear and hatred that ultimately took the life of 28-year-old Daniel Braden, who was killed in the 2002 Bali Bombings, and millions of others in conflicts around the world. Encompass was set up by Daniel’s family to fight injustice and prejudice across divided communities, with the hope of fostering understanding, trust and empathy. 

Encompass’ goal is to facilitate a collaborative space for young Israelis and Palestinians to work towards peace by challenging the status quo, confronting divides, and exploring nonviolent alternatives to addressing the conflict. We rely on the hard work of our dedicated country representatives to manage and deliver our Journey of Understanding programmes twice a year, as well as our IntraPal programme which aims to tackle the increasing fragmentation that has taken place in the Palestinian communities.
