Peres Peace HouseSince December 2009, the offices of the Peres Center for Peace are housed in the Peres Peace House in Ajami, a largely Arab neighborhood of Jaffa. The Peres Peace House also contains the Shimon Peres Archives, an auditorium and conference rooms, and a conflict resolution library. Many of the Peres Center's activities, including public lectures and coexistence activities, [17] take place within the Peres Peace House, as well as activities for the empowerment and development of the local Jaffa communities. These include legal aid services, community empowerment programs and a mentoring program for underprivileged children. The cost of the Center was estimated at $6 million and timeline of three years. According to Haaretz, as of August 2009, the cost and building time of the Peace House have been highly underestimated.[18] The Center was opened in December 2009. The building (2,500 sq m), a distinctive architectural landmark on the Jaffa coast next to the poor Arab neighborhood of Ajami, was designed by renowned Italian architect Massimiliano Fuksas.[19] Through the years the building was open to the use of the local Arab community and the Center promoted projects to empower local groups and individuals. The first event held at the building was a graduation ceremony of 21 women, mostly Arab who graduated from a Women's Economic Empowerment Program and received their computer technician certificates.[19] Over the years the center has won both negative and positive critiques. Author Witt Raczka questioned the efficacy of the organization,[20] while Israeli peace activist Jonathan Kis-Lev praised the Peres Center for Peace in his book "My Quest For Peace".[21] AwardsIn 2010 the Peres Peace House won the Emilio Ambasz Prize for Green Architecture and the Yesodot Ha'emek Prize for Israeli Architecture.[22] LeadershipThe Director General of the Center is Efrat Duvdevani, formerly Director General of the President's House during Peres' Presidency. Her predecessor was Ido Sharir, formerly Chief of Staff to President Peres. Before Mr. Sharir, Ron Pundak served as Director General for over 10 years. The men and women who comprise the executive board are CEOs, Directors, and Presidents of various organizations, as well as scholars, academics, and journalists. The first Director General of the Peres Center was Ambassador Uri Savir, who, together with Shimon Peres, established the organization and currently serves as Honorary President.[23][24] Tax-exempt statusIn 2011, the Israel Tax Authority denied the Peres Center's request for tax-exempt status in Israel demanding that the organization stop funding the training of physicians from the Gaza Strip in Israeli hospitals.[25] The demand led the organization to suspend its application for tax-exemption rather than stop the training project.[26] In 2016, the Peres Center received tax-exempt status in Israel.{{cn|date=September 2018}} The Peres Center for Peace also has tax-exempt status in the United States, the United Kingdom and Italy.[27] See also
