Tishreen sees itself as integrally connected to the local community and its members are active agents of social change, equality and social and environmental justice. We are activists and initiators seeking to encourage creative expression and dialogue while also promoting the formation of coalitions and cooperative relations among and between other activists and organizations in the region. Tishreen focuses on social-artistic endeavors in order to create a rich and productive civil society within the Arab community in Taybeh and in the Triangle region.
We anticipate working in the following areas in the coming year: 1. Working with youth both within the formal education system and outside of it. 2. Working with a select group of university students. Both youth and students will it to engage them in activities which promote the welfare and cultural life of our city. 3. Planning a number of cultural and identity-building activities locally targeting the general public. 4. Engaging women in a number of empowerment activities with particular emphasis on increasing women’s political participation locally.
We are a grassroots organization in the Arab Palestinian community that can offer and important perspective on the situation of our constituents.
