The quasi-besieged Palestinian leaderships in Ramallah and Gaza are rather lucky. Despite the multitude of crises that they find themselves forced to deal with, Israeli military occupation, a USA-Israeli plan to liquidate their struggle for freedom and independence, another round of Israeli annexation, and the novel COVID-19 pandemic that has befallen the world at large, their people keep thinking forward.
One such case in point is from the Palestine Strategy Group (PSG). This decade-old initiative has been busy working towards the publication of the ‘Palestine 2030 – A decade of Clarity and Renewal’ report. It was virtually launched on 30 June and present were Palestinians from all walks of life, from Palestine, both the West Bank and Gaza, Israel, and the refugee and diaspora communities.
‘Palestine 2030’ is the culmination of a three-year research project and builds on twelve specially commissioned research papers and several in-person workshops that analyze the Palestinian issue through the lens of the changing Israeli, regional and international contexts.
