Gisha is an Israeli human rights organization, founded in 2005, whose goal is to protect the freedom of movement of Palestinians, especially residents of the Gaza Strip. The organization promotes rights guaranteed by international and Israeli law. It uses legal assistance and public advocacy to protect the rights of Palestinian residents.[1]
It represents individuals and organizations in Israeli administrative proceedings and courts. Gisha means both "access" and "approach". Gisha is registered in Israel as an independent, non-partisan, not-for-profit organization.[2][3]
Example of projectsedit
Israel restricts movement of Palestinian residents between the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Israel has implemented a policy of allowing Palestinian movement from the West Bank to the Gaza Strip, but making it quite difficult for Gaza residents to move to the West Bank. Israel typically refuses to allow Gaza residents to leave for the West Bank, even when the Gaza resident is originally a West Bank resident. Gisha has helped Gaza residents who had moved from the West Bank to the Gaza Strip return to the West Bank by filing petitions to Israeli authorities arguing that extremely pressing personal circumstances provide humanitarian grounds for relief.[4]
