If everyone sees themselves as victims, there will be no way to achieve reconciliation and take responsibility. The widespread victim narratives that have been practised for centuries only lead to the other always being seen as the enemy and the world being divided into ‘us and them’. The Near East School of Theology in Beirut, Lebanon, is a theological academic institution that is actively involved in interfaith dialogue between Christians and Muslims. Together with a delegation from Lebanon and ecumenical representatives from Germany we will discuss how it is possible to overcome the self-image of being a victim and to engage in dialogue.
