Ittijah received Amuta, not-for-profit status in 1997. Ittijah’s overall mission is to coordinate, foster and present the common strategies of its member organizations, working to end the political, legal, social, economic and cultural discrimination against Palestinians in Israel. In pursuit of equal status, Ittijah provides a variety of services to its membership. These include promoting greater efficiency through professional capacity-building; networking and strategic planning among member organizations; monitoring Israeli laws and regulations; monitoring and transmitting international developments relevant to the NGO movement; domestic and international advocacy; information sharing; providing links between NGOs and the international development community; and increasing public awareness in regard to activities of the NGO sector and its influence in the development of the Arab minority in Israel.
Today's Situation"The army that will defeat terrorism doesn't wear uniforms, or drive Humvees, or calls in air-strikes. It doesn't have a high command, or high security, or a high budget. The army that can defeat terrorism does battle quietly, clearing minefields and vaccinating children. It undermines military dictatorships and military lobbyists. It subverts sweatshops and special interests.Where people feel powerless, it helps them organize for change, and where people are powerful, it reminds them of their responsibility." ~~~~ Author Unknown ~~~~
