Executive Summary

ARIJ has served as a platform for consultation, dialogue and cooperation among development organizations and partners for 23 years. Today ARIJ continues to strengthen our institute and is focused on working with our partners to facilitate and assist ARIJ in all its fields of interest. The alignment of ARIJ mission and ARIJ work is becoming clearer every day.

In 2012 ARIJ combined its applied research projects with the provision of services and the implementation of developmental and emergency projects that address both the short and long term needs of Palestinian society. ARIJ continues to play a major role as a national institution and produced substantial influences through its highly qualified and skilled staff in the fields of Sustainable Agriculture, Natural Resources Management and Development, Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing, Physical Planning, Advancement of information systems and Good Governance Program. ARIJ achieved considerable success within all of its specialist fields on both a national and international level. This year’s accomplishments can be summarized as follows:

The Sustainable Agriculture program team performed many activities in the year 2012 in the fields of agriculture development, forestry, bio diversity, food security and livelihood, socio economic development, agro marketing, capacity building, and fundraising. The program aims is build the capability of Palestinian farmers, as well as rural beneficiaries, to practice suitable agro-developmental and agro-household activities in order to increase their production and generate more income. Also, ARIJ intensified its agro-development activities to help small farmers and vulnerable rural families utilize their available resources in a sustainable way. A joint partnership of ARIJ, the Al-Aroub agriculture school, and pioneer farmers, successfully launched an aquaponics production system, and a vermiculture and aerated composting system to help the community’s agro-developmental activities. In 2012, vulnerable and rural families of 3,448 persons, from 140 different localities in the West Bank, are now benefitting from numerous agro-intervention practices.

Due to the increased demand for food security practices in Palestine, ARIJ established the Biodiversity and Food Security department which aims to foster and implement vital food programs serving the local community. Through conducting 151 questionnaires, and 139 participatory rural appraisals, the program team effectively succeeded in launching The Village Profile and Needs Assessment project to constructively analyze the overall living conditions in Jerusalem, Ramallah and Jericho. In addition, ARIJ contributed to the success of Bio- diversity project, which aims to involve citizens in the design of global biodiversity policy. A number of announcements, reports, and links were released and published on local and national websites and networks to enhance the biodiversity project’s perspectives. In order to evaluate the capacity of its institutional and technical perspectives, ARIJ participated in the IUCN/MAVA project and used an assessment questionnaire to use to successfully launch the learning project of NGO’s capacity building in Palestine. In full partnership with the Ministry of Agriculture, the ARIJ team also implemented the PFSR Project in order to examine the issue of the sustainability and rehabilitation of Palestinian forests. Meetings with the main stakeholders were held to inaugurate the project and establish its main activities and priorities. During 2012, the department contributed to 17 conferences and workshops, 7 visits, meetings and interviews, 2 TV interviews, 5 video clips, 8 published newspaper articles, 20 press releases, 2 books and 2 scientific articles.

In the geopolitical arena, the ARIJ Urbanization Monitoring Department continued monitoring the daily physical violations imposed by the Israelis on Palestine. The department scrutinized Israeli activities during 2012 and published 27 articles in local newspapers, 12 articles in local news agencies, as well as an article for an international news agency, and an article for a human rights organization website. In addition, the department published 366 Daily Reports, which targeted daily occupation activities such as settlers’ violence, uprooting trees, land confiscation, and house demolition. Moreover, the ARIJ team also continued to provide informational services to support local community and national organizations by supplying statistical data, reports, maps and geographical records for a variety of purposes. Noteworthy are the 1,054 case studies, numerous field visits, 42 presentations, 42 meetings and conferences, 12 monthly and 4 quarterly reports, 72 radio dialogues and 30 television interviews that highlighted the aforementioned activities.

Also, in 2012, the Geoinformatics Department mainly assisted in updating figures, fact sheets and maps for the following projects: Monitoring Israeli activity and violations in Palestine, Socio Economic and Food Security Atlas, Virtual Tour of Jerusalem, Building Road Maintenance Management Capacity using GIS in the Ministry of Public Works and Housing (MOPWH).

The Physical Planning Department’s team continued planning urbanization strategies and schemes for the optimization of land use. In the HLEAND project, through intensive consultation, ARIJ selected Wadi Al-Bathan to develop natural landscape ecotourism. In addition, the department’s team built strong ties with many international, regional and Palestinian institutions and NGOs in order to enhance and establish joint cooperation Page 2 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ in various fields. Also noteworthy, is that the department conducted 12 meetings, visits and interviews; participated in 3 conferences and workshops; published two newspaper articles and two articles on land degradation; and conducted two workshops and one presentation during 2012.

In the fields of water and environment management and renewable energy, ARIJ established strong cooperation with European centers of research and scientific excellence to continue the project, “Capacity Building for Sustainable Treatment and Valorization of Olive Mill Waste in Palestine” project (OLITREVA) / the ultimate impact will be to provide a thorough assessment of the existing science and technology capacities of local research institutions dealing with olive mill waste, as well as to facilitate the exchange of information and expertise between Europe and Palestine. Further, ARIJ, in cooperation with the UNRWA’s Barrier Monitoring Unit (BMU), conducted niche market research using a survey that targeted 171 directly affected communities in order to examine the environmental impacts of the West Bank barriers.

ARIJ also continued to work on reducing the vulnerability of the targeted population of the Wadi Al- ‘Arrub/Hebron Governorate. Through organizing 15 capacity building trainings, and training 35 tourism industry stakeholders in a green practices-based workshop, ARIJ completed its activities to increase awareness of Green Water practices in the Palestinian hotel industry in the Bethlehem. Moreover, the Water and Environment Research department contributed to 40 conferences and workshops, 16 visits and meetings, and conducted 18 presentations during 2012.

In the area of Good Governance, the ARIJ team continued its efforts to build bridges with local and international institutions in order to increase the capacity, integrity, transparency, responsiveness and social accountability in every aspect of local committees. ARIJ also conducted qualitative analytical research for the World Bank giving a systematic, yet pragmatic, overview of social accountability issues at the local level in the West Bank and Gaza. The Good Governance program continued its work on the social capital project and implemented one social capital research project, three participatory workshops, three reflection workshops, one national workshop, two pilot initiatives, five radio dialogues, one public service announcement, and three social capital trainings to promote the perception of norms, social empowerment, and social values within the local community.

In addition, during 2012 the ARIJ team developed ties with international bodies to implement the Agro-Rural Cooperatives in Palestine, whose objective is to enhance good governance practices among the target group. One theatre play was performed to evolve the perception of this topic among cooperatives and stakeholders. Through the Pro Poor Integrity project, ARIJ has in increasing awareness by organizing fifteen committee meetings; five meetings between committees and change makers in local authorities; four meetings for the Hebron Public Hearing; and ten meetings for the Al-Ram public hearing to strengthen local society organizations ability to undertake social accountability activities in the municipalities of Al-Ram, Hebron, Nablus and Jericho. The team promoted their efforts by broadcasting two radio spots in Jericho and Al-Ram to focus on the service dilemmas in Area C. The department additionally contributed to 114 conferences and workshops, 70 visits, meetings and interviews, 80 services for the local community, and 33 newspaper articles.

The dissemination of information was achieved by the publication of 5 books, 4 scientific articles, 2 magazine articles, 4 conference papers, 14 special reports, 1 technical report, 5 leaflets, 1 guide, 1,057 case studies, 12 monthly and 4 quarterly reports. (Section 5.7)

CHAPTER II: ARIJ PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES

2.1 Natural Resource Management Program This program is composed of three departments described as follows:

2.1.1 Urbanization Monitoring Department

The Settlements Monitoring Department continued to carry out its main objectives in 2012 to collect data and update the database; analyze and present reliable information on Israeli activities and the physical changes in the occupied Palestinian territory. Equally important, the department monitors how those activities and changes affect the Palestinian people and landscape, as well as their subsequent impact on the overall political scene, including the peace process.

The Department conducts daily monitoring of the physical Israeli violations through searching local Palestinian newspapers, Israeli newspapers, international news agencies and local and international human rights organizations and then publishing the results as the “Daily Report” on the ARIJ website. A concise coverage of Israeli occupation activities in the Daily Report tags Israeli activities including: settlers’ violence, uprooting trees, land confiscation, house demolitions and other related activities. The violations are marked on map showing the targeted location and violation.

The following activities were carried out by the department in 2012:

Field work is considered an invaluable part of the Department’s scope of work. After targeting areas and interviewing local officials and residents to verify incoming information, as well as getting first hand information on happenings, the data is processed into case-studies, and monthly, quarterly and annual reports about the geo-political status in the West Bank and Gaza including: the Segregation Wall; Israeli settlements; outposts; bypass roads; land razing and d expropriation, trees uprooted movement barriers, and house demolitions, among other events and activities. In addition to analyzing aerial photos, site visits were conducted to verify changes in the aerial photos, assess the extent of the changes on the ground, investigate the Israeli activities in the affected areas and appraise the impact on the local Palestinian community.

The Department’s activities during 2012 included acquiring satellite images and purchasing a set of aerial photographs to compare land use/cover analysis between 2011 and 2012 concerning Israeli settlements’ activities and violations in Palestine. The images were used to determine land use changes, including location, land area, built up areas of existing Israeli settlements and outposts, and expansions over time as well as the sites of new outposts. Additionally, the aerial photographs were used to track changes in the Israeli bypass road system, military closures, checkpoints, roadblocks, siege areas, land devastation, trees uprooting, crop destruction, house demolition and the status of the Segregation Wall.

Case studies are the result of fieldwork conducted by project team members who collect information through interviews with local people and officials, as well as related materials such as photographs and military orders, and other resources. The Department also works to translate case studies into Arabic and other languages. During 2012 the project published on its website a total of 1,054 case studies documenting major incidents and events of Israeli related activities in the occupied Palestinian territory. See Annex 5 for a list of published case studies. Additionally, the data collected were summarized in reports and published on ARIJ’s and the project website as well as in the local newspaper and on the internet. The Department also conducted 72 radio dialogues and 30 television interviews focused on illegal Israeli activities in Palestine.

1. The Israeli Colonization activities in the Palestinian Territories during the 1st quarter of 2012 (January - March) / 2012 2. The Israeli Colonization activities in the Palestinian Territories during the 2nd quarter of 2012, (April - June) / 2012 3. The Israeli Colonization activities in the Palestinian Territories during the 3rd quarter of 2012, (July - September) / 2012 4. The Israeli Colonization activities in the Palestinian Territories during the 4th quarter of 2012, (October - December) / 2012

Additionally, the Department was involved in numerous workshops, conferences and lectures focused on subjects including illegal Israeli settlements activities in the context of international law and international humanitarian laws, and the effects of the Israeli policies on the overall urbanization status of Palestinian communities in the occupied Palestinian territory. (See Annex 1)

As part of spreading awareness to the public, the project team published articles of particular issues and events in the local regional newspapers. (See Annex 4)

The Department also worked in-cooperation with the GIS Department to produce maps illustrating reports revealing facts on the ground relevant to Israeli activities, in addition to hardcopy maps detailing the geo- political situation in Palestine. To this end, the Settlements Monitoring Department, in-cooperation with the GIS

Page 6 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ Department, produced, printed and published distributed 2,000 posters in Arabic and English of the Geo-political Status of Palestine; to local and international officials, NGO’s, foreign representatives, and local officials, among others.

Further, to carry out its mission the department continued efforts to consolidate and strengthen relationships with governmental organizations and NGOs on the local, regional and international levels. On the local level, the contacts were consolidated by field visits to obtain information and provide the local communities with Israeli plans, and inform the Palestinian community of the latest developments in Palestine.

The department’s achievements can also be measured by the increasing number of visits to the project's website "POICA". During 2012, the website recorded 15,077,403 visits compared to 14,750,015 in 2011; and 12,308,269 in 2010. The increasing number of searches clearly indicates that the project is trusted as a source of reliable information and attests to the website’s increasing significance as a major source of information on issues relating to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

Additional Activities:  Provided the academic community and news agencies with information regarding the political status as well as vital information regarding the settlements and the Israeli occupation in Palestine.  Contributed to the fact sheet regarding the Cremisan Valley situation in Beit Jala which was used for the public protest organized by the Municipality of Beit Jala, athe Society of St. Yves, Kairos Palestine, and ARIJ.  Prepared a report regarding Israeli’ plans in Jerusalem to induce forced displacement of Palestinian Jerusalemites, and demonstrating how the demographic manipulation the Israeli municipality of Jerusalem operates to increase the Israeli population of in the city.

2.1.2 Geo-informatics Department

The ARIJ Geo-informatics Department uses state of the art data and mapping technology in its research studies on land use analysis and planning, environmental, water management and sustainable development in Palestine. Over the past 15 years, ARIJ has worked diligently to promote its technical and human resources capabilities in the field of GIS and RS. ARIJ has a well developed Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing Unit based on ArcGIS 10.1, manifold 6.0, ArcVIew, Ecognition and open source GIS software for the GIS mapping technology; in addition to having acquired the professional image processing software ERDAS Imagine 10.0, Er Mapper 7.2, and PCI 9 to accurately analyze and interpret satellite images and aerial photos.

The Geo-informatics Department continues to act as a service provider, constantly supporting the other ARIJ departments with statistical data, maps and geographic records needed for their research and other projects. The GIS at ARIJ is involved in variety of applications as diverse as natural resource sciences, urban development and analysis, automated mapping and facility management (AM/FM) systems, land information systems (LIS), agriculture and geopolitics.

ARIJ introduced and used the GIS as a Decision Support System (DSS), to enhance the performance of the municipalities and local government. Moreover, the GIS and RS at ARIJ have supported many other national organizations with related reports, data and maps. The unit has also worked with the local communities to build

Page 7 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ their capacities and skills and to enhance their knowledge of GIS. ARIJ continues its contribution to the training of the "new generation" of Palestinian and Arab specialists in the area of GIS, remote sensing and their applications in natural resource management.

In 2012, the Geoinformatics Department provided many services to the local community by: (See Annex 6):  Providing assistance on roads and maps for Hebron University.  Providing numerous lectures for students of the Alquds University (Abu Dees) in the field of GIS & RS.  Providing many services on roads and maps to the Palestinian Municipalities.  Mapping for the Palestinian Customs Office.  Printing geopolitical map posters of the West Bank in English and Hebrew.  Printing geopolitical map posters for each Palestinian governorate in the West Bank in English.  Providing a training course for the World Food Programme (WFP) on geopolitical status in the West Bank.  Providing maps for Palestinian citizens to help them raise issues against the confiscation of land.  Helping many students with their master and bachelor graduation projects by providing them with data and maps on the geopolitical status of Palestine.

The Geoinformatics epartment is assisting in updating figures, fact sheets and maps for the following projects:

 Monitoring Israeli activity and violations in Palestine.  Socio Economic and Food Security Atlas.  Virtual Tour of Jerusalem.  Building Road Maintenance Management Capacity using GIS in the Ministry of Public Woks and Housing (MOPWH).

 Preparing maps for people affected by the Israeli Military orders: Providing members of the local community who are affected by Israeli military orders with all necessary information and maps related to the land confiscation that can be used in Israeli courts to oppose in Iaws. These maps are considered important documents for claims against military orders in Israeli courts.

 Petroleum Authority: In collaboration with the Petroleum Authority, ARIJ carried out a field survey of all gas and fuel stations in the West Bank. The ARIJ team collected data and GPS points for more the 260 gas and fuel stations, and shared data with the Petroleum Authority which assisted them in their daily work.

 Jerusalem Atlas ARIJ finished mapping a new atlas on the history, geo-politics, and spatial planning of Jerusalem. The atlas, a work on progress, contains more than 150 maps with explanatory text. A history of Jerusalem city starting from 3000 B.C., the atlas is considered to be the first of its kind

 The Palestinian National Committee for the Register of Damages (PNCRod) As a founding member of the committee, ARIJ participated in regular committee meetings and is mandated to provide technical advice to the committee, with additional responsibility for the continuous revision of register related documents.

2.1.3 Physical Planning Interventions

The Physical Planning interventions work on the fields of Land use Planning and Physical Planning. Land use planning aims to designate and regulate the use of land in order to improve a community’s physical, economic and social efficiency and well- being, while physical planning designs a land use plan as a framework to propose the optimal physical infrastructure for an area. This includes infrastructure for public services, transport, economic activities, recreation and protection of the environment. The physical planning is prepared for both urban and rural areas in Palestine. Physical Planning interventions aim to prepare comprehensive development plans that address both land use zoning and provision for physical infrastructure.

Main ongoing projects: 1- Promoting socio-economic sustainable development through innovative technological actions for Mediterranean tourism heritage and landscape protection (HLEAND): The total duration of this project is 40 months, with main objective to promote socio-economic and enhancement of territories through sustainable tourism-heritage and landscapes protection in the Mediterranean Basin.

4- Arid Zones Research Station (EEZA), Spain EEZA, an institute of the Spanish National Council for Research (CSIC) in the Areas of Natural Resources in Spain, has two main research departments: Desertification and Geo-ecology and Functional Evolutionary Ecology, in addition to a technical services department. Saher Alkhouri a research associate at ARIJ has finished his master thesis about monitoring of land condition in Palestine, in EEZA, under the supervision of Dr. Gabriel del Barrio, the Desertification and Geo-ecology group manager. Currently, ARIJ has communications with EEZA especially in the fields of remote sensing, GIS, land degradation and desertification; and EEZA and ARIJ are networking with the Economics of Land Degradation (ELD) Organization in Germany for future research cooperation.

Publications:

1- Monitoring of Land Conditions in the occupied Palestinian territory 2000-2010 This research was carried out by ARIJ employee, Saher Alkhouri, for his master thesis. The thesis research was conducted at the Arid Zones Research Station (EEZA) in Almeria, Spain, between October 2011 and September 2012, under the Supervision of Dr. Gabriel del Barrio Escribano, the Desertification and Geo- ecology group manager at EEZA.

The main objective of the thesis was to develop a diagnostic of land conditions based on land trends (Degrading, Improving, Static and Fluctuating), in the occupied Palestinian territory during the period 2000 - 2010, and focused on the effects of inter-annual variations of aridity and time in the plant biomass. The general methodology used in this thesis is the r2dRUE library, an R package used to develop of land condition in a larger territory during a given time period. It based on monthly archived-time series and requires two types of data: a vegetation density index such as NDVI and climate fields at a corresponding spatial resolution. The West Bank is considers as ideal benchmark of this methodology, because it combines a set of land degradation syndromes that spread over wide climate gradients.

The study aims to provide the different Palestinian users with records and maps about land degradation and desertification, which helps to combat desertification and land degradation in the West Bank region. Also, the study aims to provide the different users with monthly climate archive (grid files) of mean maximum, mean and mean minimum air temperature, and of total precipitation, in addition to the Aridity Index map and monthly gird files of the Evapotranspiration.

The results show that the amount of land under active degradation processes is 16% of the West Bank area (876 km2). This shows one of the highest proportions in regards to other regions that were tested by the same methodology. The land condition is not homogeneously distributed between the West Bank agro-ecological zones and between the Oslo II classified areas (A, B, C). Jordan Valley and Semi-coastal zones are most affected by land degradation. Area A is most affected by land degradation due to the Israeli Occupation which played a great role in forcing the Palestinian built-up area expansion in areas A and B, because in area C the utilization of land by the Palestinians is restricted by the Israeli military orders, thus causing an overload of available space within Palestinian controlled areas (A, B).

2- Development of a Monthly Climate archive for the occupied Palestinian territory (2000-2010) Also, this research was carried out by ARIJ employee Saher Alkhouri, for his master thesis. The main purpose of this research was to model 11 years of mean maximum, mean and mean minimum air temperature in Celsius degree, and of total precipitation in millimetre for Palestine, for the period 2000-2010. The results were 528 grid files (maps) for the four variables, in addition to the FAO Aridity Index map,

In October 2011, ARIJ started a new multinational interdisciplinary project entitled, “Capacity Building for Sustainable Treatment and Valorization of Olive Mill Waste in Palestine. (OLITREVA)The OLITREVA project is part of the European commission’s International Cooperation Activities within the Seventh Framework Programme (EU-FP7) which funded project focused primarily on integrating Palestine into the European Research Area. The project aims to reinforce the Research and Technology Development (RTD) capacities of ARIJ for the sustainable management of Olive mill waste in the West Bank through increased networking and cooperation within European centres of research and scientific excellence in the field. The OLITREVA project coordinated by ARIJ brings together three partners: Verein zur Förderung des Technologie transfers an der Hochschule Bremerhaven e.V. ttz - Germany, Institute on Membrane Technology ITM-CNR- Italy, and the University of Extremadura UEX- Spain.

Olive Mill Waste Water is disposed untreated into the sewage network, cesspits or dumped in open areas without any consideration of its environmental impact on groundwater, surface water or land. Similarly, large amount of Olive Mill Solid Waste are accumulated during harvest season and discarded on neighbouring lands or on dumpsites or used some times as a fuel.

Upon completion, the main impact of OLITREVA will be the reinforced RTD capacities of the ARIJ institute and Palestinian researchers in the sustainable management of OMW through: 1) Providing an in-depth assessment of the existing strengths of local research institutions dealing with OMW treatment, which will be used by Palestinian researchers as a foundation to search for the most efficient techniques that suit their national conditions; 2) Facilitating the exchange of information and expertise between the European and Palestinian partners on OMW treatment and valorization; 3) Boosting the professional growth of young Palestinian scientists by training junior researchers on technical Olive Mill Waste (OMW) treatment and valorization processes and on European project management related-issues; 4) Raising the awareness of the scientific community, public authorities and society on the necessity for sustainable and environmentally sound technologies for OMW treatment and valorization; and 5) Increasing the participation of ARIJ in regional and international projects in the field of OMW treatment and valorization. Through this work, ARIJ expects to develop the necessary capabilities to respond to environmental challenges resulting from incorrect OMW disposal. In the meantime, the project has succeeded in expanding team members' knowledge of current OWM treatment and valorization technologies implemented in Mediterranean countries and the potential for the research in this field. In addition, team members succeeded in achieving the following results during the first year (2012) of the OLITREVA project: 1. Identification of the Science and Technology (S&T) capacities and needs of Palestinian R&D institutions in treatment and valorization of OMW, 2. Identification of the barriers hindering Research and Technological development (RTD) in Palestine 3. Identification of the RTD capacity in the Mediterranean region in the field of sustainable management of OMW. 4. Assessment of the actual state of RTD capacity for OMW treatment and valorization in Palestine. 5. Development of the OLITREVA project website in Arabic and English in order to disseminate the project findings and results and as communication tool between the project partners. The website is accessed at www.olitreva.org. 6. Development of an online database platform which is the most essential part of OLITREVA website and acts as a dissemination tool since it includes the relevant articles and reports written under the project’s framework; a compilation of relevant literature by local researchers (articles, PhD thesis, news, etc), and a special review of previous and on-going ERA-WIDE projects in the Mediterranean Region; and links to the official project websites, in addition to researchers, and on-going projects.

ARIJ organized a focus group meeting to identify barriers hindering (RTD) in the field of OMW treatment and valorization in Palestine. The meeting was attended by representatives from the Palestinian Water Authority, the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of Environmental Affairs, in addition to representatives from local institutions, Palestinian universities, and independent researchers.

Between June 2011 and June 2012, the Applied Research Institute Jerusalem (ARIJ) and the UNRWA’s Barrier Monitoring Unit (BMU) hosted by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East jointly researched the environmental impact of the West Bank Segregation Wall, and its effect on Palestinian livelihoods, as well as the vulnerable Palestine refugee population. This research examined how the construction of the barrier and its physical structure impact the environment and rural livelihoods, and how access restrictions affect land use. The survey targeted 171 directly affected communities through focus group discussions with village councils and municipality representatives, as well as farmers owning land behind the Barrier.

The study demonstrated yet again that the Barrier not only has a devastating impact on Palestine refugees’ livelihoods, but also on the surrounding environment. The ARIJ/BMU study found that 90% of the visited communities’ livestock numbers have been impacted by the barrier’s construction - with reductions in their livestock numbers of up to 60%. Moreover, the results of this study show that the Barrier has had a significant impact on land use as farmers are either restricted or denied access to their lands now located behind the Barrier, resulting in the quality of this land degrading and remaining community lands being over-exploited. Furthermore, the losses of livestock due to limited grazing space resulting from the Barrier have lead to additional pressure on the remaining pasture. The joint research presented further underlines the necessity and urgency for the international community to pressure Israel to comply with the International Court of Justice ICJ’s 2004 Advisory Opinion and immediately ceases construction of the barrier and dismantles those parts that are already built.

An Environmental Impact and Community Access Monitoring Database, three fact sheets and three short films about the environmental impacts of the Barrier, including land degradation, severe flooding, the destruction of water sources, and deteriorated waste management were developed, prepared and presented during the celebration of the national events for World Environment Day 2012. In attendance were the Palestinian Authority Minister of Environment, the General Director of ARIJ, the West Bank director of UNRWA operations, and participants from approximately 60 stakeholders form several government ministries and the civil society

(national and international NGOs).

Through the continuous funding of the Spanish Cooperation through the CAP program, the Water and Environment Research Department (ARIJ) and Fundación Centro De Las Nuevas Tecnologias Del Agua (CENTA) continued implementing the activities of the project, “An Integrated System for the Treatment and Reuse of Wastewater in Wadi al 'Arrub”, in cooperation with the Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) and with the support of the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation and Development (AECID). The project is designed to reduce the vulnerability of the targeted population of the Wadi Al-‘Arrub/Hebron Governorate through adopting improved wastewater management practices, and the reuse of treated water for agricultural purposes.

Wastewater stream in wadi Al ‘Arrub

Page 14 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ

The project is still ongoing, but upon completion, it is expected to provide numerous benefits including:

 Enhanced wastewater management and improved living conditions for the targeted population and the surrounding area.

 Improved hygienic, environmental conditions and public health, especially women and children, in the targeted population and the surrounding area; and reduced waste-related public health problems and environment risks.

A wastewater treatment plant with a capacity of treating 1250 cubic meters of wastewater, in addition to a reuse system will be constructed in Wadi Al-‘Arrub which will

 Enhance food security of the targeted population (poor, marginalized and highly vulnerable people).

 Increase the availability of freshwater through using treated wastewater for irrigation rather than using high quality drinking water; and increase fruit production and self-reliance of beneficiaries.

Around 1200 dunums of fruit trees and other suitable crops will be irrigated with treated waste water in accordance with the MoA and MoEA standards.

 Secure broad d public participation of community members and increase their awareness of wastewater management practices.

 Enhance the skills and capacities of community members in the field of wastewater treatment and reuse.

Approximately 200-250 residents of the targeted area will be engaged in community meetings and awareness campaigns, and will be trained on sanitation and hygiene practices.

In October 2012, the Water and Environment Research Department completed its activities on the project entitled, “Enhancing water conservation through adopting green water practices in the Palestinian hotels - Case study of Bethlehem governorate". The main objective of the project was to increase awareness of the value of incorporating GREEN WATER practices in the Palestinian hotel services, especially in Bethlehem governorate hotels. The implementation of the project resulted in several benefits including:

1. Introduction of the concept of environmentally green practices in Palestinian Hotels (Bethlehem hotels). 2. Creation of strong advocates for environmentally green practices among the stakeholders and national authorities. 3. Development of the capacities of the tourism industry stakeholders. Three capacity building workshops trained 35 members of tourism industry stakeholders. 4. Raised awareness of the hotel employees through 15 capacity building trainings for 150 hotel owners and employees in the field of environmental application, with the main focus on green water practices. 5. Adoption of sound environmental practices (“water saving devices”) by at least seven hotels owners. 6. Assessment of the current green practices in the hotels. 7. Development of a comparative study and base line Bethlehem hotels profile which will be used in planning the adoption and introduction of green practice in hotels. 8. Establishment of channels of information and technical support for new investors and existing touristic bodies to sustain, update and fulfil the project findings and recommendations regarding green practices.

Dissemination of project findings and results was mainly achieved by developing and publishing:

 A Green Practices Manual for the Hotels in Palestine. The manual includes all the practices related to the management of water resources, energy, wastewater management and solid waste management in hotels.

Page 15 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ

 A Technical Report which includes comparative studies between Palestinian hotel practices and other green hotels in the world, including feasible recommendations towards implementing green practices in Palestinian hotels by focusing on water usage and practices.  A Training material in two forms: a presentation and five awareness leaflets.  A poster considering to be put in hotel reception areas to notify guests that the hotel is conscious of environmental issues and is applying green practices by encouraging the guests to ration water and energy consumption during their stay.

In August 2012, the Water and Environment Research Department completed its activities on the consultancy entitled “National Environment Summary (NES) for Palestine”, funded by United Nations Environment Programme.

The National Environmental Summary (NES) was developed as an information tool to support the incorporation of the environment in UN Common Country Assessments (CCA) and United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) which are currently being undertaken by the UN Country team in Palestine. The National Environmental Summary Document (NES) for Palestine is intended to provide a critical analysis of gaps and opportunities that exist within policies, programmes and the national legislative framework. All of these factors are used to address the major environmental issues within the context of poverty reduction and development, and to provide analysis to the Palestinian government and UNCT with respect to the environmental priorities facing Palestine and for use in the elaboration of the priority areas for the UNDAF.

The National Environmental Summary for Palestine was prepared and developed using a combination of in-depth desk reviews of available national documents and interviews with key environmental experts. The National Environmental Summary gives a synopsis of the environmental situation in Palestine with the backdrop of economic and national development. The document: 1) provides a review of environmental issues, their trends and threats, and the impact economic activities are having on the environment.;2) looks at the linkages that exist among the natural resource base, its economy, and poverty; 3) looks at national responses that have been undertaken to counteract the threats and impacts to the environment and natural resource base; and 4) the report highlights gaps and opportunities which can aid the country’s progress in areas where weaknesses have been identified.

In October 2012, the Water and Environment Research Department and SENES Consultants Limited completed their activities on the consultancy entitled, “Solid Waste Management (SWM) Project in the Southern West Bank”. The main objective of the work was to provide technical, environmental, social and financial assistance to the International Finance Corporation (IFC) on their technical due diligence with respect to the West Bank’s ongoing SWM project. In addition, the findings and the results of this work were used to develop a “Commitment Paper” which was submitted to GPOBA for a funding commitment contemplated to help improve the end-service for residents who are not able to afford the full cost recovery fees, and to tackle the main problems faced by municipalities in managing their SWM system: namely (a) high inefficiencies linked to internal costs of primary waste collection; and (b) low fee collection ratios. Also the study succeeded in:

 Raising the awareness of the local communities with respect to solid waste management. More than nine training sessions and six focus group meetings were carried out, and over 150 people trained.  Understanding peoples’ perceptions in the Bethlehem and Hebron governorates with regard to their environmental future (solid waste management) and social well being.  Empowering citizens to define their future goals and designing plans and actions toward achieving environmentally sound solid waste management.

Page 16 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ

Moreover, ARIJ/SENES are currently involved in supporting the IFC in designing a project via the Public Private Partnership for landfill in the Southern West Bank and transfer station operations. They will provide assistance to IFC on technical, environmental and social issues related to preparing and implementing the Public Private Partnership (PPP) transaction.

In 2012 the Water and Environment Research Department started a pilot program for individual sanitation. This pilot project is part of the signed convention for partnership between the Adour-Garonne River-Basin Committee, the Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) and ARIJ in order to improve sanitation conditions in the West Bank. The program is designed to develop and evaluate three different prototypes for individual sanitation systems for wastewater. The technology developed through this project will be adopted at the national level by the Palestinian Water Authority as an alternative solution for wastewater management at the household level, especially in the rural areas of Palestine.

During 2012, The Water and Environment Research Department was involved in the implementation of several projects related to other departments at ARIJ including: the Village Profile and Azahar Need Assessment in Ramallah, Jerusalem and Salfit Governorates and a qualitative study of local government units’ (LGU's) social accountability in the West Bank and Gaza strip . In addition, the department offers technical support to Green Palestine Co through providing, among other activities, alternative solutions, implementation of related tasks, designs, and cost estimates.

The department also continued its activities in the field of natural resource management, including the analysis of water resources and mapping the main areas of vulnerability for the most vulnerable groups in relation to the current deteriorating conditions of water supply and sanitation services in the West Bank. The department conducted environmental impact assessments through field surveys and linking dynamic models with geographical information systems. The department conducted several community awareness campaigns and training programs targeting the community members in the field of water, sanitation, and environmental management. Further, the department gave several presentations to local and international groups and appeared in a number of television and radio interviews. The department also prepared and published several case studies, reports, and newspaper articles, as well as supported national and international organizations with reports and data related to the Water and Environment sector. Also, it should be noted that the Water and Environment Research department succeeded in constructing 13 small scale wastewater plant at the household level in the rural areas of Beit Anan , Beut Surik , Beit Ejza, Alkubaiba,kherbat El Lahem, in the Jerusalem governorate; and Akaba – Tubas and Raba in the Jenin governorate. The project resulted in:

Page 17 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ

1) Enhanced wastewater management, and improved living conditions for 22 HH beneficiaries (approximately 160 people) in the targeted localities. Iinstalled wastewater treatment units in 22 vulnerable households, mainly headed by women.

2) Increased availability of freshwater for 22 vulnerable households through substituting treated wastewater for irrigation in place of the use of high quality drinking water.; in addition, fruit production and the self-reliance of HH beneficiaries was increased. . -Around 20 dunums of fruit trees and other suitable crops were irrigated with treated waste water in accordance with the MoA and MoEA standards.

3) Improved the hygienic and environmental conditions and public health (especially of women and children) in 22 vulnerable households and the surrounding area; and reduced waste-related public health problems and environment risks. -22 targeted HH, mainly headed by women, were trained on sanitation and hygiene practices, resulting in the improvement of water quality and health conditions of the 22 vulnerable households.

In March 2013, the Water and Environment Research Department completed its activities on the consultancy, “Poverty and Environment Mainstreaming Assessment for Palestine”, funded by United Nations Environment Programme.

The poverty and environment mainstreaming assessment for Palestine was developed as an information tool to support the incorporation of environmental mainstreaming in UN Common Country Assessments (CCA) and United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) which are currently being undertaken by the UN country team in Palestine, with particular emphasis on strengthening institutions and addressing poverty and environment linkages. The document is intended to assess and provide evidence of the nature and extent of the linkages between environment and economic development, growth and poverty eradication in Palestine, including mainstreaming occupation adaptation and climate change into policy making and budgeting for sustainable resource management. In addition, the document is intended to provide institutional analysis relating to the Palestine national development planning processes with a view to assessing how issues of poverty-environment linkages can be mainstreamed in the processes. The assessment‘s proposed solutions will take into account the unique situation in Palestine and focus on those aspects within the government’s sphere of influence.

In December, 2012 ARIJ began building a long-term database for the governorates in Palestine within the framework of a project entitled “Integrated Territorial analysis of the Neighbourhoods, 2012-2014’. The project aims to build a sustainable database and developing territorial analyses for the European Neighbour Regions (from Morocco to the Russian Federation including Palestine). In addition, the project will present the basic regional socio-economic status and development trends based on statistics at various levels for the European neighbours. Additionally, it is intended to clarify the territorial level on which actions can be taken to support a successful implementation of territorial neighbourhood policy. The lead partner on the project is the French National Centre for Scientific Research CNRS / GIS CIST, FR.

During 2012, joint research between the Terre des hommes (Tdh) and the Applied Research Institute- Jerusalem (ARIJ), was conducted to assess the environmental and public health problems resulting from the rapid accumulation of e-waste in Ithna and Beit Awwa. The assessment findings are presented in a case study entitled, “The impacts of electronic waste disposal on the environment and public health in the occupied Palestinian territory: a case study from Ithna and Beith Awwa, Hebron Governorate”. The study highlights the situation in Ithna and Beith Awwa which receive vast quantities of e-waste, most of which is transferred from Israel. The study reveals the extent of destruction inflicted on the landscape and environment by e-waste processing and disposal, along with the associated contamination of agricultural produce and water resources. Health concerns for the local Palestinian population in Ithna and Beit Awwa are also expressed in the report.

Moreover, the study proposes actions to address the lack of regulation and enforcement within the hazardous waste management policy and environmental legislation in Palestine. The study further proposes the initiation of public awareness campaigns regarding the hazards of e-waste disposal, and promotes channelling investment into sustainable recycling hubs and projects across Palestine. Based on the assessment’s findings, a concept note was developed. The proposed intervention consists of two dimensions: the first proposes bringing clean, affordable, sustainable and environmentally friendly technology to business owners, as well as further investigation of the environmental impact of burning waste. The second dimension centers on child protection and will include providing adequate health follow-up of affected children as well as providing enjoyable and educational alternatives for children now being used as child labor. The cross-cutting component will be advocating change and raising awareness of the dangers of current practices.

Page 18 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ In December, 2012 ARIJ initiated a study entitled, “Assessment of Groundwater Resources in Palestine”. Unsustainable utilization and management of both surface and groundwater resources in Palestine has led to their depletion as well as deterioration in their quality. The overall objective of the study is to identify the hotspots where water resources are depleted and urgent actions must be taken; to provide decision makers and other stakeholders with accurate data; and assist them in shaping the ultimate water agreement in the final negotiations with Israel.

Current extraction from groundwater is exceeding the recharge rate, and ground water levels are decreasing rapidly. Depletion of water resources is largely due to Israeli consumption, which consumes more than 80 % of Palestinian ground water and denies Palestinians their rightful use of the Jordan River. Moreover, extreme weather events, such as droughts, have noticeably increased in recent decades across Palestine.

The most significant environmental effects of climate change on the Palestinian people are projected to be a decrease in precipitation and significant warming. Low annual rainfall depletes the recharge rate of groundwater water resources, which in turn limits the quantity of water available to Palestinians. A reduction in annual rainfall will add increased pressure on local water resources as less rainfall equates to less recharge for groundwater aquifers. The study is primarily intended to assess the water budget components in historic Palestine at high resolution in space and time. The assessment will include estimates of evapotranspiration (evaporation and transpiration "ETo"), surface runoff, and groundwater recharge, as well as analysing the potential impacts of the climate change on water resource availability.

As part of the ongoing cooperation between ARIJ - as part member of the EWASH advocacy committee – and t EWASH, representing the civil society community in Palestine, the Water and Environmental Research Department has concluded a series of briefings for EU member-states representatives on the water status and rights of Palestinian communities in the occupied Palestinian territories. The EU representatives were also updated on the water status and the difficulties faced by Palestinians in accessing and managing natural national, and other shared regional water resources, as a result of the ongoing illegal occupation of the Palestinian territories. The meetings also highlighted the grave effects of the Israeli policies and practices on the development and sustainability of the water sector particularly in area “C”.

An article, “The Water Grab in Colonial Perspective: Land and Water in Israel/Palestine and the Levant”, by Gasteyer, S.; Isaac, J.; Hilal, J. and Walsh, S. was published in the “Water Alternatives” journal” (Volume 5 issue 2): pages 450-468). 'Water grabbing' and 'land grabbing' have been referred to as a new colonialism, dispossessing small farmers and indigenous people of land and water for the sake of investors. The current 'grabbing' is driven by a perceived scarcity of food and sustainable energy, and is enabled by global financial instruments and commodity speculation. The authors argue that, while in many ways different, the 'new colonialism' of land/water grabbing may be better understood through analysis of the old colonialism. The ongoing power imbalance in water management and access, the disproportionate burden on Palestinians of growing water scarcity, and the inability of technical solutions to address the problems of relative deprivation, may be seen as cautionary tales for current 'water grabbing'. Another article, “Cooperation, Domination and Colonization: The Israeli-Palestinian Joint Water Committee” by Jan Selby, was published in the Water Alternatives journal (Volume 6 issue 1). In his paper Mr. Selby posed the question, “Do there exist instances of international (water) policy coordination which are so unequal that they should not even be considered 'cooperation'?. Heargues, on both theoretical and empirical grounds, that this is

indeed so in Palestine today.

Cooperation with the Palestinian Government, NGOs and Institutions: ARIJ’s relationships with the Palestinian Water Authority (PWA), the Palestinian Ministry of Environmental Affairs (MEnA), and the Palestinian Central Bureau of statistics (PCBS), enjoyed significant progress in 2012. ARIJ participated in PWA, MEnA and PCBS workshops, discussion groups and specialist roundtable meetings; and the Institute continued its participation in the Environmental Sector working group (EnSWG) meetings.

Page 19 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ ARIJ is a member of the Drought Task Force-National Committee for Climate Change under the umbrella of the MEnA a member of the World Overview of Conservation Approaches and Technologies (WOCAT) under the umbrella of the MoA, a member of the National Team for developing an Environmental Information System under the umbrella of the PCBS. In addition, ARIJ continued to be an active member in the E-WASH committee and the Water Advocacy Task Force (ATF). In the past year ARIJ worked jointly with the ATF and the EWASH members in developing and preparing four fact sheets regarding Palestinian water resources;

 Demolition/Destruction of WASH infrastructure  Economic, Social and Cultural Rights  WASH in Access Restricted Areas of the Gaza Strip  Report on Israeli aid restrictions in the WASH sector:

In addition, EWAH along with ARIJ and MAAN made a joint submission entitled, “Israel’s violations of the human right to water and sanitation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory”, to the UN Human Rights Council on the occasion of the Universal Periodic Review of the State of Israel

Cooperation with Regional and International Institutions, Bodies and NGOs:

On regional levels, special contacts were made to develop joint research and developmental activities with the: National Council for Scientific Research-CNRS-Lebanon, Royal scientific society Jordan; the Higher council for science and Technology Jordan; the Italian National agency for new technologies, Energy and sustainable economic development; the International College of Territorial Sciences-France; Verein zur Förderung des Technologie transfers an der Hochschule Bremerhaven e. V (ttz) Germany; Universidad de Extremadura (UEX) Spain; ‘Consiglio Nazionale Delle Ricerche (ITM-CNR) Italy; SENES consultants limited –CANDA; Conseil Développement Innovation, and Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna - Istituto di Management. ARIJ also submitted two project proposals to the CAP 2013:

 Emergency support for poor and vulnerable households with basic water needs in the communities in south western part of the Bethlehem Governorate.  Enhancing the access of poor and vulnerable households to basic sanitation in Tuqu' village and the surrounding small communities in the eastern part of the Bethlehem Governorate.

2.2 Sustainable Agriculture Program

Activities and achievements in the year 2012: The Sustainable Agriculture Program focuses on promoting sustainable agriculture to assist in improving food security and livelihoods for vulnerable and marginalized Palestinians through enhancing their access to land, water, food, production inputs, better practices and technologies and biodiversity resources in a sustainable manner. Additionally, this program aims to improve the availability of reliable information in the field of agro-production, crop management, socioeconomic development, marketing, food security and biodiversity as effective management tools to assist decision makers and stakeholders in developing suitable agricultural plans and strategies.

Page 20 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ During 2012 the Sustainable Agriculture Program performed many activities in the fields of agriculture development, forestry, biodiversity, food security and livelihood, socio-economic development, agro-marketing, capacity building, research, networking, fundraising and dissemination of information.

The program contributed to improving food security and the livelihood of marginalized rural families and small farming families in Palestine, and increasing their self sufficiency. During 2012, ARIJ managed to intensify its agro-developmental activities through supporting small farmers and vulnerable rural families to utilize their available resources (land, water and crops) properly and in a sustainable way in order to enhance and improve their agro-practices and their access to diversified sources of plant and livestock productions on household levels. Also, the Sustainable Agricultural Program encouraged the adoption and practice of feasible and environmentally sound practices to encourage all the family members to participate in these activities.

This year also witnessed the introduction of new technologies piloted by ARIJ, Al-Aroub Agriculture Schools and pioneer farmers and there was a distinguished achievement through supporting poor families inside Jerusalem. These technologies included the introduction of aquaponics production system, vermiculture and aerated composting. Additionally, ARIJ has continued its seed bank program in Jenin and cooperative based seed preservation system. 3,448 vulnerable rural and small farming families from 140 localities of the West Bank benefited from different types of agro-interventions which included: home gardens, cisterns rehabilitation/construction, establishing small poultry and sheep farms, trees cultivation, aquaponics, greenhouse improvement, distributing seed, providing agro-services and producing seedlings, and distributing bee queens cells. To assure farmers’ capacity to manage the provided production inputs and tools, ARIJ implemented an intensive technical and extension program through visiting the provided production units and supervising the family members towards better practices. Thus, the ARIJ team conducted 3,868 household visits (483 working days). The provided agro-production inputs created 17,373 in-kind working days by ARIJ’s direct beneficiaries and 4,932 paid working days for the workers in the targeted communities, with a total value of $281,724 and $106,637, respectively.

A main target of the agriculture program is building the capacities of Palestinian farmers and rural beneficiaries to practice suitable agro-practices and optimize the utilization of available and provided assets. Also the program aims to increase agro-developmental and agro-household production capacities, access to more food, greater food self-sufficiency, and to generate more income from agro-production activities. ARIJ has conducted 218 field days, training workshops, field trainings, and community awareness sessions. These activities focused on field crops management; home garden management; greenhouse management; food processing; composting (aerated and worms); aquaponic management,; pruning, managing, and controlling pest diseases of olive trees, as well as participatory needs assessment Rapid Appraisal (PRA), and beehives, sheep and poultry management. These trainings targeted farmers (men and women), cooperatives, and cooperative members; while field visits targeted donors, university students, agro-specialists and partner organizations, and the awareness sessions targeted the beneficiary communities in order to form the agro- program activities. Accordingly, 3,392 persons were trained and targeted, of which 1,053 were women (31%).

2.2.1 The Biodiversity and Food Security Department

Accomplishments and achievements in the year 2012:

1. Accomplishments of Village Profile and Needs Assessment in Jerusalem, Ramallah and Jericho / Al Aghwar Project The BFS department conducted a comprehensive analysis of all localities in the Jericho, Jerusalem and Ramallah Governorates which depicted the overall living conditions in the region, and presented plans to assist in developing the local populations’ welfare and livelihoods. Up to 151 questionnaires were completed for the Jericho, Jerusalem, Ramallah, Qalqiliya, Salfit (& partially for Nablus) Governorates (see Photo 1 and Table 1).

During the implementation of the project, the BFS team prepared, in both English and Arabic, 122 village profiles for Jericho, Jerusalem and Ramallah Governorates, including 25 urban areas, 80 rural areas, and 9 Page 25 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ refugee camps. In addition, there are 8 localities not classified as urban or rural, as they lie within the borders of the Israeli Municipality of Jerusalem.

Geographic data was provided including up to 140, 122 and 110 land use land cover maps, location maps, and information maps (see Photo 2 and Table 1) that were prepared respectively for the three governorates in both English and Arabic. In addition 119 fact sheets, 122 need assessment tables, aerial photos, and photos were prepared, covering the targeted localities.

The BFS department also conducted 139 Participatory Rural Appraisals with farmers, local authorities and active institutions in the Governorates of Jericho, Jerusalem, Ramallah, Salfit, and Qalqiliya, in order to conduct a collective analysis, upon which all the resulting development plans were based (see Photo 3 and Table 1). The PRAs results and findings were all analyzed and integrated with the village profiles mainly in the needs assessment and proposed projects section; and in the integrated report under the proposed developmental plans and projects.

Three specialized integrated reports were prepared for the three targeted Governorates and up to 500 English and 500 Arabic copies of final integrated reports for Jericho governorate were printed and distributed. A special awareness brochure about the website was printed and distributed to all the studied localities, educational, research and related organizations and to individuals.

The web basesd Village Profile information system was updated and the Jericho, Jerusalem, and Ramallah village profile sub-websites were developed, presenting profiles, fact sheets, project proposals and needs for development matrices. The newly developed databases were integrated with the Hebron and Bethlehem databases in both English and Arabic. The website can be accessed at: http://vprofile.arij.org (see below) as well as the ARIJ home page: http://www.arij.org.

More than 37,000 visits have been made to the Village Profile website from 17 different countries including Palestine, Israel, USA, Germany, Spain, and Jordan. Visitors accessed the website directly as well as through the ARIJ website, Google, APIS, OCHA – Palestine, Wikipedia and Facebook. The website was covered in both local and national media. Various national and international stakeholders reported that they found the Village Profile website a vital interactive tool offering comprehensive information about Palestinians at the local level, including descriptions of different sectors, needs assessment tables and proposed developmental projects. Several village councils and municipalities, such as the Al Doha municipality and the Bir Nabala local council, utilized the village profile and PRA findings in developing their Local Strategic Plan.

2. Accomplishments of World Wide Views on Biodiversity Project The BFS department joined the WWViews on Biodiversity Project as a National Partner representing Palestine. ARIJ joined another 25 countries from all over the world in a consultation event aimed at involving citizens from around the world in designing global biodiversity policy and to promote understanding of perspectives on biodiversity from young people and adults all over the world. The BFS conducted the consultation event on September 15, 2012 in Ramallah after attending training in Denmark and conducting training for Palestinian facilitators (see Photo 5). The Palestinian voting results were reported directly to the Danish Board of Technology as the WWViews project coordinator, CBD Un-Secretariat and 11 Palestinian delegates from COP. As many as 104 Palestinians from the 11 Governorates of the West Bank - of different localities,, ages, genders, education levels, and occupations– participated in the event.

Page 27 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ The WWViews event was fully covered and several press releases, reports, meetings, and announcements were, made to introduce the project at the Palestinian level, including a set of announcement sheets about the WWViews project prepared by ARIJ. A set of documents and video clips were translated into Arabic including four video clips, and information material about Global Biodiversity, an event questions’ document, and enrolment forms and invitations.

ARIJ also created a link for the WWViews project on its webpage where announcements, reports, and links to main project webpage were uploaded (www.arij.org). Press releases announcing the project at the local and national levels were published on web-networks including PNN (Palestine News Network), Bethlehem TV network, Ma’an network, LACS network; and in newspapers including the Al Quds and Al Ayyam newspapers; registered in Palestine at the CBD event calendar, as well as on the radio by Bethlehem and Mix TV channels and Radio Ma’an network. A five-minute TV report was prepared by the Bethlehem TV channel and broadcasted on MIX news five days before the event, with details about the event and COP11. Also, the event was recorded in a 2 minute video clip, a 30 minute video clip, and a 3 hour video clip, all of which are archived in the ARIJ video library.

The Results Summary Report for WWViews in Palestine was prepared and distributed to decision makers, facilitators and ARIJ’s network. Photos and interviews taken during the event day were uploaded on WWViews on ARIJ Facebook page, Twitter, Flickr and Vimeo. An article about the event’s results was published in several magazines including the November 2012 edition of “This Week in Palestine”. Additionally, ARIJ submitted several evaluation reports, progress reports and a final technical and financial report to DBT and CBD.

The World Wide Views Day in Palestine was reported at the global level through DBT, and during the October 2012 CBD-COP11 meetings in India. Palestine, represented by ARIJ, was the only country from the Middle East region participating in this event, and thus the Palestinian voting results were covered globally. The CBD- UN Secretariat recommended that ARIJ participate in the next round of WWViews on biodiversity that will take place in 2014. As a result of its success in the WWViews project, ARIJ became a member of the World Wide Views Alliance sponsored by CBD-UN Secretariat and looks forward to for better networking among global biodiversity stakeholders under the CBD umbrella.

3. Accomplishment of BFS partnership in the IUCN /MAVA project: The BFS department joined the IUCN/ MAVA project entitled, “Nurturing NGOs Capacity to Engage in Biodiversity Conservation in Eastern Mediterranean”, as national partners representing Palestine. Funded by MAVA foundation, it aims to assess and increase the capacity of NGOs to meet the challenges of nature conservation. The BFS department completed an assessment questionnaire provided by IUCN to evaluate the capacity of ARIJ from institutional and technical prospective. In November 2012 the head of the BFS department attended a 3 day institutional capacity building training in Amman /Jordan, conducted by the IUCN with the support of two experts from Bird Wildlife International/RSPB-UK and Portugal (See Photo 7). The training resulted in a complete capacity assessment for the 26 NGOs participants, representing IUCN/MAVA regional partners from Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine and Syria. ARIJ was considered one of the strongest and largest NGOS in the region. As noted in the IUCN final report:

Page 28 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ

” as we have some large organizations, with large numbers of professional staff, large budgets and a very professional institutional set up (e.g. Royal society for the Conservation of Nature, Jordan River Foundation, Applied Research Institute Jerusalem), ARIJ is one of the strongest organizations within the project, so we strongly suggest that their experts are used as regional experts to cover some of the mentoring-twinning schemes included in this project”. Final Report for the International Union for Conservation of Nature - ROWA/Amman. December 2012

As a result of the training and ARIJ’s excellent assessment, IUCN offered ARIJ the opportunity to conduct the learning project in Palestine as part of the IUCN MAVA learning projects to raise awareness of local NGOs in the field of Biodiversity. Accordingly, ARIJ will be hosting one Photo 7: ARIJ Participating in Capacity Building training of the small learning projects: “Palestinian Forests in Amman/November 2012 Sustainability and Rehabilitation: Al Qarin Protected Area in the Southern West Bank and Umm at Tut Protected Area in the Northern West Bank within the Mediterranean Eco-system”.

IUCN also suggested – as part of MAVA project’s twinning schemes- that ARIJ experts visit a group of organizations in Jordan, as well as others in Palestine, to discuss their sustainable agriculture and forest inventory priorities and project portfolio in order to both identify new opportunities and to offer their expertise.

4. Accomplishments in the PFSR (Palestinian Forests Sustainability and Rehabilitation) project

The BFS department is implementing the PFSR project in full partnership with the Palestinian Ministry of Agriculture (MoA). ARIJ and MoA held two meetings to establish the project’s main activities and priorities.

The BFS department introduced the project to main stakeholders, including Ministries for Agriculture, Environment, Tourism, the Palestinian Water Authority, the Land Authority, LRC, Al Najah University, and others through a meeting in November 2012 inaugurating the project (see Photo 8). A project announcement sheet was prepared and distributed to relevant stakeholders and uploaded to the ARIJ website. Six meetings were conducted with neighbouring communities located around a 2.5 km buffer zone of forested area in both targeted protected areas including Jalqamus, Tanin, and Un At-Tut villages in Jenin, and Shyoukh Al Arroub, Al Arroub Camp, Photo 8: Kick off meeting with project main stakeholders and Beit Ummar in Hebron. at ARIJ premises November 2012

A literature review was conducted for both protected areas with help of specialists from both MoA directorates in Jenin and Hebron. In addition to ARIJ’s previously conducted surveys about forested areas in the West Bank and its experience in this sector mainly forest inventories in the southern part of the West Bank was included in the review. Land degradation and land changes analysis was done for both protected areas using specialized software and analysis tools.

2.4 Good Governance Program

Following are the accomplishments and achievements in the year 2012:

1. World Bank Consultancy

In its efforts to improve the level of social accountability in Palestinian Local Government Units (LGUs), the Ministry of Local Governance (MoLG) requested a study from the Wold Bank on the factors that influence and challenge LGUs’ social accountability in the West Bank and Gaza (WB&G). The World Bank, in turn, requested the consulting services of the Applied Research Institute - Jerusalem (ARIJ). In its subsequent report, ARIJ delivered the qualitative analytical work necessary to carry out an informed policy discussion by providing a broad, yet pragmatic, overview of social accountability issues at the local level in the WB&G.

ARIJ conducted the study with a previously selected sample of 15 LGUs. Special focus was given to the accountability in relationships between LGUs and their citizens as well as key sectors to citizens, and other cross-cutting issues. The study was conducted from a multi-disciplinary perspective and with a focus on action- oriented results. Conceptually, ARIJ utilized the established approaches and tools of social science, specifically social accountability, including focus groups and interviews.

This study on LGUs Social Accountability in West Bank and Gaza showed that citizens’ engagement in local affairs still needs improving in spite of all previous efforts to encourage participation. In general, some citizens take part in formulating strategic plans or in identifying the development projects and their needed relation. Nonetheless, there are no consistent practices applied by LGUs, especially in relation to service delivery issues. In particular, an area of weakness is using a participatory approach to prepare the LGUs’ budgets.

Although transparency improved in the last few years as some LGUs started publishing their budgets on the website, the right to information in general is not a well-understood and applied concept for both citizens and LGU officials. Moreover, there is some lack of communication between citizens and LGU officials which prevents them from sharing their concerns. This factor contributes too many citizens; lack commitment to fulfil their obligations toward their LGUs, including some citizens’ perception that they are not responsible for paying for their own services.

The responsiveness of LGUs towards the needs of the citizens varies among services depending mainly upon the capacities of the LGUs. Citizens’ complaints and service related issues are communicated verbally, making it difficult to assess the level of responsiveness In relation to each service. At least in the West Bank, the LGUs’ responsiveness is not affected by favoritism according to political affiliation. However, due to cultural forces, personal relationships play a major role in governing relations in the Palestinian community. Another important finding was that there is a lack of service charters defining minimum standards for each service. In Gaza, the political division has a negative effect on social accountability. Furthermore, the political environment has hindered service delivery and caused discrimination among citizens based on political affiliation.

Page 33 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ Monitoring is the weakest among the four pillars of social accountability. While PA oversight bodies handle financial and administrative issues of local authorities, they do not monitor local service delivery. However, some new initiatives in few localities involve monitoring committees representing citizens and civil society organizations.

The main recommendations for the MoLG include clarifying accountability relationships between the MoLG and all types of LGUs. In addition, the study recommended monitoring and enhancing service delivery in cooperation with citizens and civil society organizations, as well as developing a system of monitoring and evaluation for local expenditures and budgets was recommended.

In regard to the LGUs, the key recommendations included securing citizen participation in decision-making processes and budget preparation through communication mechanisms and access to information and launching revenue collection campaigns as well as developing service charters that define the minimum standards for each service.

For the civil society organizations, introducing measures to increase citizens’ awareness of their rights and responsibilities and establishing community-monitoring committees was recommended.

Finally, in Gaza, not only should politics not be played at the local governing level, but it was recommended that LGUs must become vital social organizations which are reliable, competent and able to withstand the tides of political turmoil and deliver confidence and assurance to its citizens. It is essential that the circumstances and politics in Gaza do not affect the environment of local governance or social accountability in LGUs.

2. Social Capital Project

During 2012, ARIJ’s Good Governance Department embarked on the new field of social capital, defined as “the norms and social relations embedded in the social structure of societies that enable people to co-ordinate action to achieve desired goals.” A research and implementation project was carried out in partnership with Catholic Relief Services with funding from USAID. The project focused on relations and networks in the Palestinian society that produce real change in the democratization and good governance process. Because civil society organizations play a major role in this process, the research measured social capital by measuring the relationships between civil society and different sectors of the society. These relationships include interactions with the community, government, media, and the private sector in addition to networking with other civil society organizations CSOs.

Ninety-three CSO’s and 352 individual beneficiaries were targeted throughout the project.

 Social Capital Research – In addition to measuring social capital, the research revealed the history of Palestinian civil society organizations including the formation and growth of the sector; how it grew in response to the creation of Israel; how the various wars affected civil society as a whole, and how the sector adapted in response to the Occupation. The research also explored how CSOs functioned before and after the Intifadas, and in response to the Oslo Accords. It covered different forms of social capital, (e.g. bridging and bonding), and the importance of strong social relationships which are needed to bind a society. One thousand copies of the final research were printed in both Arabic and English, and disseminated to hundreds of organization during and after the conference. The report received a very

Page 34 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ positive response, especially regarding its recommendations. The social capital project changed the course of discourse in the civil society sector by familiarizing people with the term “social capital” and demonstrating its benefits for community based organizations. By the conclusion of the project the term “social capital” was beginning to circulate throughout the good governance sector.

 Social Capital Participatory Workshops - Three participatory workshops were held in Nablus, Bethlehem and Ramallah which included participants from the surveyed organizations as well as participants from additional organizations. The workshops received a positive response and resulted in gaining a broader perspective from CSO’s regarding their relations with the government, private firms, other NGOs, media and citizens. Participants provided valuable information used in the development of recommendations for best practices on how to enhance social capital.

 Seventy-six trainees representing 25 organizations attended trainings in Nablus, Bethlehem and Ramallah to instruct CSO’s on “Best Practices Relating to Social Capital”. The trainings’ participants were introduced to the concept of social capital (an unfamiliar term to most of them), and they were taught the difference between physical capital, human capital, and social capital. Information was presented about the importance of networks, developing trust, reciprocity, and other social norms, as well as their affects on strengthening social capital.

 Pilot Initiatives - Two organizations were selected to participate in the pilot phase of the project. The first was the Qarawat Beni Zeid Women’s Club, an organization from a village north of Ramallah, which focuses on women and community empowerment. The objectives of their initiative were to strengthen the community’s ability to identify their needs and present their cases to the respective parties, in addition to empowering civil society organizations to advocate for the needs of their community. The second organization selected was the Youth Development Resource Center (YDRC) of Hebron. YDRC’s initiative,” Networking”, is aimed at strengthening the relationship between CSOs, the community, the private sector, the government, and the media through trainings, media reports, coordination meetings with the municipality, advertising, and Facebook and Twitter pages highlighting and publicizing the events of twenty-five CSOs within Hebron.

 Reflection Workshops- Three reflection workshops were conducted in Nablus, Bethlehem, and Ramallah. With impressive results. It became apparent instantly that the topic of social capital was something that was making its way through the civil society sector, and the workshops resulted in the production and adoption of social capital recommendations by a wide range of civil society organizations.

 Media Campaign - One public service announcement was aired on Ma’an Radio in five radio stations over a period of a week. A short play was also presented at the closing workshop, adding a visual dimension which increased the effectiveness of the entire event.

 National Workshop – The national workshop was a major success. Participants included 95 organizations, primarily from the project beneficiaries, as well as Catholic Relief Services’ partners and friends of ARIJ. The participants presented many testimonies about how they benefited from the project and how they can apply social capital values in their civil society organizations.

Capacity Development for ARIJ

 The Social Capital Project included a capacity building component for ARIJ which resulted in the Catholic Relief Services evaluation tool referred to as the PONAT assessment. As a result of this assessment, and in cooperation with ARIJ management, the following capacity building outputs were achieved during 2012:

 Advocacy Center - In the year 2011 ARIJ administration decided to establish a media and communication department in charge of publishing all of ARIJ’s work and communicating our success story was implemented by the development of an advocacy strategy was developed and a small studio was constructed with the capacity to produce highly professional movies. As a

Page 35 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ result, ARIJ has started producing a short documentary about ARIJ’s work, in addition to advocating for different community and national causes.

 Advocacy Strategy – After preparing a general advocacy strategy, ARIJ recruited an Advocacy Officer tasked with implementing the strategy by working with each department in order to identify their specific advocacy needs, and advising them on the best advocacy strategies for their departments.

 ARIJ Staff Trained on Advocacy Practice - Advocacy training was conducted during March for 20 employees. The training focused on the concept of advocacy and included the purpose of advocacy, advocacy models and tools, and strategies to employ media and social media for advocacy, networking and communication. With civil society organizations, government, and the community. Also emphasized was the development of position papers and press releases to advocate for ARIJ’s position on causes related to the Institutes’ themes of Environment, Sustainable Agriculture, Good Governance, and Human Rights. The employees were extremely satisfied with the dynamic training, particularly as it provided specific examples of how to adapt advocacy concepts to their department’s specialities.

 ARIJ Project Management Manual– A comprehensive ARIJ Project Management Manual customized for the management of its more than 20 ongoing projects was produced. The manual equipped the monitoring and evaluation department with tools necessary. Moreover, the manual contributes to building ARIJ capacities in programs and service delivery which further empowers ARIJ as a Palestinian Civil Society organization.

 UPS Purchased and Installed the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), which enables ARIJ to operate computers for a period of time after a main power outage, thereby allowing employees to save their work and to safely shut down their computers.

3. Developing Agro-Rural Co-operatives in Palestine towards Good Governance and Better Transparency and Accountability

In addition to working with civil society and local authorities, ARIJ’s Good Governance department also works with cooperatives. For the second year, ARIJ continued to empower cooperatives to employ integrity principles through its project “Developing Agro-Rural Co-operatives in Palestine towards Good Governance and Better Transparency and Accountability”. The project, implemented in partnership with SCC and funded by The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), addresses the governance challenges among Palestinian cooperatives.

The specific project objective is to enhance good governance practices among target groups based on the principles of transparency, accountability and participation. Targeting 14 Palestinian Cooperatives and the Olive Oil Cooperative Union (OOCU), the project works with different bodies, including the cooperatives' board of directors, general assemblies and oversight committees. Moreover, the project focuses on supporting SCC partners to raise their capacities and competencies in good governance.

To achieve the above objective, the project team worked with the cooperatives, empowering them to install and follow good governance practices in order to fulfil their mission, the good governance team employed a variety of methods including workshops, trainings and drama, in addition to enhancing financial and administrative procedures. Thus, during 2012, the project team held 15 good governance awareness workshops, 5 accountability trainings and 15 exchange visits, in addition to accountability and participatory sessions.

 Theatre Play The theatre play was another important activity that proved to be very effective. A special drama, “Who Votes for Abu Khader”, was developed to address the governance challenges and remedies of the cooperatives. The play was performed twenty times for a wide variety of cooperatives and stakeholders and was very well received by the cooperatives, partner organizations as well the cooperatives’ Directorate. It is worth mentioning that the play was also developed into a short movie that was translated and uploaded to YouTube in order to reach local and international beneficiaries.

Page 36 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ  Minutes of Meeting Books Regarding the daily procedures of the cooperatives, the ARIJ team prepared special minutes of meeting books for both the administrative committees and the monitoring committees of the participating cooperatives. The professionally designed books encourage the cooperatives to be transparent in all their business activities and decisions. Accordingly, 60 copies of these books were printed for 15 cooperatives. In addition, 500 posters promoting accountable and transparent policies were printed and distributed to the cooperatives.

 Palestinian Cooperatives First Good Governance Manual In addition to the aforementioned activities, the ARIJ team prepared a special good governance manual tailored to the needs of the Palestinian cooperatives. The first manual to be produced for cooperatives in the field of good governance, it covers all eight good governance characteristics, and introduces practical applications to help the cooperatives to abide by these principles in their daily dealings. One thousand copies of the manual were printed to target an estimated 860 Palestinian cooperatives. Over 130 cooperative members were trained on how to applying the manual. Moreover, the Minister of Labor attended a special launching ceremony and encouraged all Palestinian cooperatives to adopt of the manual.

It should be noted that the manual was reviewed and adopted by the Cooperatives’ Directorate before it was printed and the Cooperatives’ Directorate is considering using the manual as a tool to coach both new and established cooperatives and their employees.

Through all of these activities, the cooperatives adopted and implemented new accountability systems and the cooperative members became aware of their roles and started abiding by them. Most importantly, the oversight committees were activated, and started implementing a major audit role, further contributing to more transparency and accountability. The cooperatives also increased their transparency by using their bulletin boards to publish various reports including their financial reports and then discussed these reports openly in front of all their members.

Regarding the participation component, the cooperative administrative committees started making their decisions using a participatory approach involving all the members of the general assembly. Suggestion boxes provided through the project also promoted members’ participation. The increased communication between cooperative members was reflected in an increase in the number of meetings held. Most importantly, the number of new members also increased as a result of ARIJ interventions.

While in general, during the first year of the project, the cooperatives became more aware of their own bylaws, as well as the good governance principles and in the past year they actually implemented those principles. Throughout its work with cooperatives, the ARIJ Good Governance Department directly and indirectly targeted 54 cooperatives as well as 896 individual beneficiaries (597 females and 299 males).

Capacity Development for ARIJ The cooperatives project also included a capacity building component for ARIJ. In this regard, ARIJ’s monitoring and evaluation capacity improved through the introduction of a new Project Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation Manual that was especially designed for ARIJ’s needs in the management of its more than 20 projects. In addition to the manual, ARIJ employees were provided with a results-based monitoring and evaluation training, followed by on-job trainings for the monitoring and evaluation team in both the office and in the field.

4. Pro Poor Integrity Summary

The Pro Poor Integrity Project, carried out in partnership with Integrity Action and AMAN and funded by the UK Department for International Development, is entering its fourth and final year. The project aims to strengthen local civil society organizations (CSOs) to undertake social accountability activities for enhancing the capability, responsiveness and accountability of the Al-Ram, Hebron, Nablus, and Jericho municipalities. In its fourth year, this project enables and empowers targeted CSOs to research integrity approaches and advocate for better public service delivery. In addition, the project increased the capability of integrity committees and change makers, to practice participatory governance.

Page 37 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ

The ARIJ team intensified its work with the monitoring committees in order to encourage them to continue their efforts and achieve results. As this is the project’s final year, the activities of the ARIJ PPI Team centred on activities to impact and create sustainable committees. For this purpose, new members joined the committees committed to the PPI approach.

 Meetings: Throughout the year the ARIJ PPI team organized numerous meetings for a variety of purposes: about 15 committee meetings, 5 meetings between committees and change makers in local authorities; 4 meetings for the Hebron Public Hearing, and 10 meetings to prepare for the AlRam Public Hearing.

 PPI Trainings: ARIJ trained the PPI committees in the areas of participatory governance, STOPE (PPI integrity standards), data collection and local elections (observing, laws and methodology).

 Local Elections 2012: Local Elections were held in the West Bank in October. The ARIJ PPI Team was heavily involved from September through November in the elections, especially in election observing activities. Fifty election observers registered under ARIJ’s name carried out observation activities in Jericho, Hebron, Ramallah, Nablus, Bethlehem, Beit Sahour, and Salfeit. As a result of the observer’s activities, the GG department printed ARIJ’s observer’s notes from the local election. Other local election activities included visits from PPI committees to candidates in PPI cities to ask them questions about their campaigns and present them with the local councils’ pledge of honour to sign.

 GG-PPI Calendar: The GG team created and printed 1,000 PPI 2013 desk calendars. The calendar include12 definitions of good governance for local authorities and were distributed to GG partners and its network of people and organizations, especially the employees of local authorities.

 Jericho Committee: In 2012, the ARIJ PPI Team assisted the Jericho PPI committee in their efforts to establish themselves as a registered committee. Jericho and ARIJ worked together to draft their bylaws and met with the Palestinian Anti-Corruption Commission to further establish and strengthen the committee and make it an NGO.

 Radio sketches: This year, the PPI Team used radio sketches to highlight issues in Jericho and Al-Ram.

Two radio spots were broadcast in Jericho calling for transparency in water service delivery, and created two spots In AI-Ram to highlight the service dilemmas in Area C.

The ARIJ team and the integrity committees’ endeavours were very successful and some of the key results were:

In Hebron, the municipality hired two local radio stations to air the water distribution schedule. Because water is scarce in Hebron, the citizens have always questioned the manner in which the municipality arranges water opening schedules among different neighbourhoods. Thus, the monitoring committee insisted that the municipality publish the schedule which has resulted in greater trust between municipality officials and the citizens. Moreover, the municipality became more responsive to the needs of the citizens after the radio station began on-air interviews of representatives from the water department and allowing citizens the opportunity to convey their complaints about water shortages in their areas.

In Nablus, the municipality responded to the petitions of the committee regarding garbage collection services in the marginalized areas. As mentioned in the previous report, the committee members conducted some visits to the marginalized neighbourhoods. As a result of committee members’ field visits to the marginalized neighbourhoods, they submitted two petitions to the municipality asking for better solid waste service because of the excessive pollution in these neighbourhoods. The municipality used these petitions to apply for solid waste funding projects and received a $45,000 project from the Welfare Association which involves providing garbage collection containers and tools. The Nablus committee will monitor the implementation of the next phase of the project. Page 38 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ

In Jericho, the dissemination of information also related to the water service, but focused on irrigation water shares. Jericho’s main water resource is the Ein-Sultan Spring which is owned by the people of Jericho through historical ownership documents. However, the citizens’ report card, as well as another study conducted by the project team, revealed that most farmers do not trust the water charging system. Accordingly, since the inception of the project, the Jericho committee demanded access to the water shares schedule using many advocacy methods including billboards and radio spots. Finally the municipality provided the committee members with a copy of the schedule. In the next phase of the project, members will investigate this schedule with the farmers and compare documented data with

actual share allocation.

Finally, the impact in Al-Ram was relatively minimal compared to the other areas, although the committee and ARIJ staff worked more intensively. Due to the political constraints in Al-Ram because of its designation as Area C, as well as the presence of the Segregation Wall, the committee decided to address the Prime Minister instead of the municipality. Accordingly, all the efforts were focused towards preparing for a public hearing to allow Al-Ram citizens to convey their demands to the higher authorities. The Al-Ram committee, with the help of the ARIJ team, managed to formulate four different papers describing their main service delivery challenges. The team is facing difficulty scheduling a public hearing due to a variety of reasons, most notably the municipality schedule, the holy month of Ramadan and the municipal elections.

The Pro Poor Integrity project also included a capacity building component that targeting ARIJ employees. ARIJ’s Good Governance Department team was involved in individual integrity training activities. Rasha Alyatim and Manal Khalil attended TIS 2012 and completed the “Leadership and Management for Integrity” course and the “Social Accountability: a Critical Review and the Way Forward” policy lab. The course empowered them in the implementation of integrity concepts, as well as providing methodologies for fighting corruption as applied in different parts of the world. Moreover, they also learned about the different roles that NGOs can play in order to build integrity systems, such as raising awareness, advocating for a legal change, monitoring, research, e- accountability, and other interventions.

CHAPTER VI: ADMINISTRATION & STAFF

6.1 Human Resources Development Plan

As ARIJ continues to grow, it faces the need for a more mature Human Resource Development Plan (HRDP) that can ensure that ARIJ staff is aligned with the mission and objectives of the Institute. Further, a good HRDP would enable the directors to align ARIJ’s objectives with the needs of its employees, ensuring that ARIJ not only attracts the talented professionals it needs, but also motivates them to pursue excellence in their work.

During the past year ARIJ implemented an effective Human Resource Development Plan 2012-2013 (HRDP 2010-2013) to assist it in facing future challenges. In Palestine, ARIJ main challenges are based on the geopolitical situation, as well as changing technology, the global economy, cultural and demographic changes, and on the changing nature of ARIJ’s work.

In 2012, the ARIJ staff was comprised of 75 professionals from all over Palestine, (60% males and 40% females). As shown in the following table, the number of male employees has increased dramatically during the period 1999 – 2012; the number of female employees also increased but at a slower pace.

The average number of employees (males & females) per year between the years 1999 and 2012.

Page 52 The Applied Research Institute – Jerusalem ARIJ

The program aims to develop sound agricultural planning and strategy based on accurate and up-to-date research and analysis in order to improve food security in the West Bank. The project will further promote agricultural self-sufficiency and enhance sustainable food security through assessing food consumption, production and marketing processes. In addition, awareness will be raised regarding the importance of sustainable food options in Palestine and will build partnerships with relevant stakeholders in order to collaborate on first class food security research and disseminate assessment findings as widely as possible.

The project will be working at studying the potential for developing productive marketing system and increasing awareness of marketing potentialities among those who work in the agriculture sector. The project will be empowering women to find their solutions to food insecurity such as enabling women to produce food for retail and earn wages from their work. The project will also be conducting a baseline assessment of the food consumption-production process, encompassing food production, food availability and food marketing. Women will be targeted through the process of assessing the food production-consumption process, highlighting their role at each stage of food production at national and local level. The project also intends to build partnerships with relevant stakeholders and offer guidance towards better solution in the production, consumption marketing and policy levels. The results of the project shall be disseminated to targeted groups including farmers, traders, processors, consumers and decision makers to increase awareness of feasible and sustainable cultivation practices, and to inform related plans and policies towards increasing self-sufficiency.

Potential projects to work on in the year 2013:

 Work on the Palestinian Species Red Book with the support of the IUCN. This is going to be a long term project which needs three to four years of work with relevant stakeholders on identifying the endangered species inhabiting the West Bank and Gaza Strip including plants, mammals and birds.

 Prepare for World Wide Views on Biodiversity event that will take place in 2014 as a preparation project for COP12. The year 2013 will renew the already existing partnerships among the 25 countries that participated in the WWViews on Biodiversity in 2012 and will initiate new partnerships. Funding for this project will also be sought.

 Continue surveying Palestinian Protected Areas and work on setting a management plan for a targeted protected area in participation with relevant stakeholders and the support of IUCN.
