Slim Peace Groups began as a documentary film about the first ever nutrition and weight loss group for Israeli and Palestinian women.
Filmmaker Yael Luttwak came up with the idea and directed and co-produced the film A SLIM PEACE which premiered at the Tribeca Film festival in 2007.

Inspired by the film, The Charities Advisory Trust from the UK asked Luttwak to create more Slim Peace Groups.

Slim Peace Groups are co-directed by Palestinian Medical Nutrition Therapist, Ms. Suha Khoury and Yael Luttwak.

Slim Peace Groups is a nutrition and healthy lifestyle and female empowerment program for all women in the Middle East.
The groups are ten week programs for women of all ages 20 to 60+.

From the film: Aviva and Amal.

After 10 sessions all Slim Peace Groups alumni are eligbile for free pilates and yoga classes and healthy cooking classes free of charge.
There are also annual Slim Peace Groups maintenance meetings.

The only fee is 300 NIS and 50 NIS deposit is returned at the last session. Our 8th Slim Peace Group in Jerusalem begins on April 30, 2009.

The groups are mainly conducted in English however there is translation provided for all Arabic and Hebrew speakers.
