Alternative Voice in the Galilee is a registered non-profit organization comprised of Arab and Jewish residents of the lower Galilee region in northern Israel. Alternative Voice in the Galilee was established following the October 2000 events in order to challenge the unequal relationship between the Arab and Jewish populations in the Galilee region. Upon its establishment Alternative Voice in the Galilee sought to mend past relationships and rebuild mutual trust between the two communities. We aim to build an intercultural civil society in the Galilee, a society that realizes and prospers by the mutual interests of all its residents. Alternative Voice in the Galilee aims to alter the present reality in Israel, which supports the institutional preference of Jewish citizens over Arabs. We wish to construct a joint future based on equal rights for all, in the Galilee in particular and in the greater Israel at large. Our organization works towards correcting historical injustices endured by the Arab minority, whose land has been confiscated, and villages and townships are limited by government policies that prevent their expansion. Alternative Voice in the Galilee is the only Arab-Jewish partnership in the region to concentrate on issues of population and living conditions.
