PASSIA Desk Diary

Every year since 1988, PASSIA has published its “Diary”, which continues to follow its original aims and goals, i.e., to provide a comprehensive directory of contact in­ formation for relevant organizations operating in the West Bank and Gaza – listing names, addresses, main activities – combined with a full day-to-day planner (calendar) of the respective year and a comprehensive compilation of events and statistics re­lated to Palestine and the Palestinians.

The PASSIA Desk Diary is annually updated – entries are added, changed or re­moved and new addresses and information are included. PASSIA is very proud to say that its diary has become an invaluable source of in­formation for many people, both locally and abroad, and as yet there is no equivalent publication in Palestine.

Contents

The 2006 edition of the PASSIA Desk Diary contains over 370 pages of up­ dated and new addresses, a compre­h hensive calendar, and information and statistics on relevant events and issues, as they became available throughout the year of 2005.

The first section is the Directory, which contains details of Palestinian and interna­tional institu­tions operating in the Palestinian Territories.­ The fact that it is annually up­dated as well as the com­prehensiveness of the directory is unique and makes it an in­valuable re­s source for all those interested in or working on the Palestine Question. Among the infor­mation provided one finds names of contact per­sons, phone and fax numbers, e-mail and mailing addresses, internet web­sites (where available), and a brief background for most organizations on their main fields of work. The directory also in­cludes an index that facilitates the search for a certain entry.
