Announcement of public release:
“Guidelines for Advocating for Palestinian Rights in conformity with International Law”
Occupied East Jerusalem, 6 February 2014
The Civic Coalition for Palestinian Rights in Jerusalem and the Birzeit University Institute of Law are pleased to announce release of this new advocacy tool, which is an outcome document of the conference “Options and Strategies of International Law for the Palestinian People” held at the Birzeit University Institute of Law in May 2013.
The Guidelines aim to help non-lawyers understand and apply international law to Israel’s oppressive regime over the entire Palestinian people: those in the Occupied Palestinian Territory since 1967, Palestinian citizens of Israel, and the Palestinian refugees since 1948.
The English edition of the Guidelines is released today on the occasion of the 2014 global Israel Apartheid Week. It is available here and here.
Release of this publication in Arabic will follow shortly.
