[mkd_accordion style="accordion"][mkd_accordion_tab icon_pack="" title="HUMAN RIGHTS & SOCIAL JUSTICE" custom_icon="4941"]

PARD believes all human beings have the same universal rights. These rights should guarantee freedom, justice, and equality to everybody. All individuals should have an equal opportunity to exercise the privileges of citizenship, freedom of speech, press, religion and to participate fully in civil life, regardless of race, religion, sex, or other characteristics irrelevant to the true value of each individual.

[/mkd_accordion_tab][mkd_accordion_tab icon_pack="" title="GENDER" custom_icon="4945"]

PARD believes that women should enjoy equal political, civil and social rights under equal circumstances that would lead to equal opportunities and capabilities. We believe that all society members and women in particular should be empowered to participate in the decision-making and implementation of issues that affect their lives.

[/mkd_accordion_tab][mkd_accordion_tab icon_pack="" title="PARTICIPATION" custom_icon="4943"]

PARD believes that all individuals and groups have the right to participate in the processes that define their lives. All individuals should have the chance to participate meaningfully in the making of decisions that influence their lives and the lives of their families. PARD believes that the organizations’ stakeholders and constituencies are integral and full partners of the planning, action and learning processes that PARD takes on

[/mkd_accordion_tab][mkd_accordion_tab icon_pack="" title="ACCOUNTABILITY & TRANSPARENCY" custom_icon="4944"]

PARD perceives transparency as a reflection for openness and clarity on crucial issues such as decision making mechanisms, operations, finance and relations. We think of accountability as an expectation to the responsibility and commitment towards PARD’s mission, values and promised quality performance.

[/mkd_accordion_tab][mkd_accordion_tab icon_pack="" title="VALUE OF INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS" custom_icon="4942"]

PARD is committed to all relevant international agreements and conventions on human rights, such as CEDAW, CRC, Beijing declaration and the Alma-Ata Declaration as well. PARD also believes in its role as an active participant that aims to contribute to the accomplishment of the Millennium Development Goals

Director

PARD believes that in addition to providing relief and support to the Palestinian refugees at times of disaster, there is a great need to provide environmental, health and social services to the marginalized and vulnerable groups in the Palestinian camps and gatherings in Lebanon at times of stability as well. These services are extremely crucial to the refugees’ wellbeing and substantially contribute to building their resilience and ability to participate meaningfully in their communities.
