PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Expertise France, with support from the European Union, is implementing an 18-month project that aims at empowering Civil Society and Media to foster community resilience and social cohesion. The overall objective of the project is to contribute to creating a more conducive environment for sustainable coexistence by strengthening civil societies and supporting independent media in advancing dialogue, mutual understanding, and collaboration across Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Israel, and the diaspora.

As part of this projects, Expertise France will provide rapid and flexible financial support to a wide range of non-profit organisations (partners) to implement initiatives that promote dialogue, reduce tensions, and foster mutual understanding within their communities and amongst different communities, in Israel and Palestine.
