We have recently been awarded a new project in Palestine. This is a study is in support of the European Union Representative Office in identifying and formulating an EU Action to support gender mainstreaming in policies developed by Palestinian institutions at local and governmental level, as well as within the five pillars of the EU Joint Strategy. In addition, the study explores interventions aiming at tackling Gender Based Violence by improving existing policies and proposing new actions. The project is funded by the European Commission.
