Jews for Israeli–Palestinian Peace (JIPF) is a small^{[citation needed]} group founded in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1982, for Swedish Jews who want to actively work towards a peaceful solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

JIPF's platform include demands for a full Israeli withdrawal, including the evacuation of the Jewish civilian population, from all territories that came under Israeli military control as a result of the Six-Day War, the establishment of a Palestinian Arab state with East Jerusalem as capital and a "solution" to the issue of the Palestinian refugees.

JIPF also advocates and participates in dialogue with Hamas and other designated terrorist organizations.[1] Because of this, as well as the positions advocated by JIPF, the group has to a large extent been estranged from the wider Jewish Community in Sweden.^{[citation needed]}

Prominent members of JIPF are Dror Feiler, Swedish-Israeli musician and artist, and Henry Ascher, pediatrician and local candidate of the Communist Party.
