WASHINGTON – Ambassador Mark Green, President and CEO of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars has been appointed by Congressman Michael McCaul, Ranking Member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, to the advisory board of the People-to-People Partnership for Peace Fund. 

“I am thankful to Ranking Member McCaul for appointing me to this important advisory board which aims to build bridges so that Israelis and Palestinians can co-exist in peace.
