Fact Finding Mission to Israel, East Jerusalem and the West Bank

From the 23rd till the 29th of May 2010, a delegation of members of the board and the advisory board of The Rights Forum visited Israel, East Jerusalem and the West Bank. The purpose of the mission was to gather information on developments in the peace process and the human rights situation. In this context, the delegation met with Israeli and Palestinian human rights organizations and visited places where severe violations of international law are being committed. In addition, the delegation received presentations from the UN organization OCHA and a leading Israeli human rights lawyer and met with Avraham Burg, former chairman of the Knesset, the Jewish Agency and the World Zionist Organisation.

The findings and conclusions of the delegation can be read here.
