New WCLAC report – Jerusalem: a City on Edge
June 22, 2015
In mid-June Salwa Duaibis and Rawan Zahran from the Palestijnen Women’s Centre for Legal Aid en Counselling (WCLAC) were visiting the Netherlands by the invitation of gate48 and Palestine Link. The purpose of their visit was the presentation of the new WCLAC report “Jerusalem: a City on Edge”. In their visit Duaibis and Zahran shed light on the current challenges facing Palestinian women living in Jerusalem today. They talked about the harsh realities for hundreds of thousands of Palestinian families who face discrimination and humiliation on a daily basis and pointed out how those realities are likely to shape the future of the city where ethnic, religious and political groups have lived in delicate harmony for centuries. Duaibis and Zahran met with decision makers and Dutch activists. To read the WCLAC report, click here. Their visit was covered both by Het Parool and the Nederlands Dagblad.
