| Contesto |
Forty four years of Israeli military occupation of the oPt has created a wide range of violations of international human rights and international humanitarian law, including severe restrictions to the right to security of Palestinian women and men. The intra-Palestinian split between Hamas, in control of Gaza, and Fatah dominant in the West Bank, has also exacerbated international human rights law violations by Palestinian duty bearers (arbitrary detention, torture, extra judicial executions, increased restrictions on freedom of expression and association). |
| Obiettivi |
To increase the human security of women, men and children living in the oPt by strengthening the human rights protection regime. |
| Gruppi target |
The Palestinian Authority, International, Israeli and Palestinian NGOs will benefit from improved technical assistance and strategic advice. The media will benefit from clear, pro-active and strategic communications from OHCHR The UN system in oPt will have improved access to in-house human rights expertise and finally the member States will benefit from OHCHR legal analysis and human rights reporting in the context of their own engagement with duty-bearers. |
