How we work
Our work is divided into two broad programs: Accountability as well as Protection and Empowerment. Both include direct services and advocacy components.
Documentation Unit
Documents human rights abuses and violations against children in the West Bank and Gaza. This unit documents Palestinian child fatalities and injuries as well as human rights violations related to the rights to education, housing, and health.
Advocacy Unit
Campaigns for the advancement of rights and protections for Palestinian children using proven and innovative advocacy strategies at the national and international levels.
Protection and Empowerment Program
Socio-legal Defense Centers Unit
Provides legal representation to children detained by the Israeli military in addition to children in conflict with the law under the Palestinian legal system. This unit also connects impacted children to psychosocial support and supports child victims of community violence, exploitation, and neglect.
Child and Community Participation Unit
Promotes the participation and empowerment of children so that they can address their own rights situation and become agents for positive change.
