Palestinians Register: Laying Foundations and Setting Directions
The Palestinian Register provides unique record of contemporary Palestinian civic and political voices. Carried out by Palestinian refugees and exiles and implemented by activists and local leaders, the report of the Civitas collective research project is now available online. This project provides a platform for those Palestinians voices that are rarely heard - the men and women who live in al Shatat (the Palestinian dispersal in 1948 and after). They discuss issues of political representation and the concerns and mechanisms for engagement and renewal. Crucially, they also address the connections that do and do not exist with the PLO and the host countries where they currently live, and with other refugee camps and communities.
