| Contexto |
Forty five years of Israeli military occupation of the Palestinian territory has created a complex situation of repeated and increased violations of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and International Human Rights Law (IHRL). Breaches of IHL and IHRL have significant negative impacts on the development of the Palestinian territory, its institutions and society and therefore jeopardize its prospects of state-building. The long-term occupation, coupled with a de facto status of impunity has led to an international fatigue when it comes to altering the cause of events. |
| Objetivos |
Living conditions of Palestinian women and men are improved as parties to the conflict, state actors falling under third-state responsibility, humanitarian actors, UN Agencies, private-sector actors and NGOs are increasingly made accountable for their responsibilities towards protected populations. |
| Grupos destinarios |
Third-state representatives, diplomatic missions, the EU, UN agencies present in oPt/ Israel, European likeminded INGOs working in Europe, media/journalists as well as potential investors in Israel & the oPt |
