ATTAC (Association pour une taxation des transactions financières pour l’aide aux citoyens)

The International ATTAC Movement - “international movement for democratic control of financial markets and their institutions” - was created at an international meeting in Paris, in December, 1998. The network promotes economic reforms meant to tame the devastating power of the financial markets, and to favour democratic, transparent economic structures that serve the needs of ordinary people. The original focus of work was on the establishment of a global solidarity tax on transactions in the exchange market, known as the Tobin Tax. The groups’ actions have since diversified and combine activism with research.

Palestinian Non-Governemental Organizations’ Network (PNGO)

The Palestinian NGO Network is a civil and democratic body, which seeks to support, consolidate and strengthen the Palestinian civil society on the basis of the principles of democracy, social justice and sustainable development. It strives for the attainment of the legitimate national rights of the Palestinian people. It is a Palestinian NGO umbrella organization comprising 92 member organizations working in different developmental fields. PNGO was established in September 1993, after the signing of the Oslo Accords, with the objective of enhancing coordination, consultation and cooperation among the different sectors of civil society. Since then PNGO has become an important component of Palestinian society and serves as an essential coordination mechanism for the NGO sector at the local, regional and international level.

PNGO envisages the establishment of an independent and democratic Palestinian state based on the rule of law, social justice and the respect for human rights. In order to support the above process, PNGO will :

  • contribute to the national resistance to end the occupation
  • advocate for the rights of the Palestinian people locally, regionally and globally
  • advocate for responsible and appropriate legislation and public policies
  • strengthen coordination within the NGO sector
  • strengthen democratic values within society
  • strengthen civil society’s organizational capacities
