Plateforme Moyen-Orient

Palestinian organizations have been stepping up their responses to the current developments and are best placed to testify about the consequences of annexation on their daily lives and work. Many are financed by the Belgian DGD (Directorate-general Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Aid) and closely related to some Belgian NGO members of the Middle East Platform. From their perspectives (workers, women and girls and agriculture) they will discuss the present situation, their view of a near future of de jure annexation and their expectations of the international community.

Panel :

• Ghada Abu Ghalyoun - Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions, PGFTU, partner of Solsoc and the CG FGTB ;
• Reem Natsheh - Women’s Centre for Legal Aid and Counselling, WCLAC, partner of Broederlijk Delen and Oxfam Belgium ;
• Abbas Milhem – Palestinian Farmer’s Union, PFU, partner of Oxfam Belgium.

Tuesday 23/6 – 4 pm CET – organized by the Middle East Platform (Belgium)
