About the Centre:
The Palestinian Center for Democracy and Conflict Resolution is a non-governmental, non-profit organisation established in August 1998 through the efforts of a group of young Palestinians seeking to build a Palestinian model that promotes the concepts of democracy and conflict-resolution alternatives. In line with its vision and values, the Centre works to promote the principles of democracy and human rights in general, and those of vulnerable groups in particular, and to strengthen tolerance, social peace, justice, accountability and gender equality, as well as to consolidate good governance, transparency and integrity. The Centre also contributes to bridging the gap in the psychosocial and legal services that vulnerable and marginalised groups lack.
