Institute for the Study of Conflict Transformation

Baruch was a dear friend, a profound intellect and scholar, an excellent teacher and mentor, and a guiding presence in our community. We saw him at our February board meeting, just weeks before his passing.  We are grateful he joined us there, speaking so openly, and leaving us with hope. 

We, at the ISCT, are sure of this: his work does not end here. We will carry it forward with the same steadiness and compassion he modeled for us. And we will continue to care for this approach Baruch loved so dearly—not only with resources and planning, but with presence, tenderness, and long-term commitment. He often called this work his "child"  And we will make sure his “child” is supported, protected, and never feels alone.
