Founder’s Message
I founded PalThink for Strategic Studies in 1995, driven by the belief that scientific research and dialogue are essential in shaping Palestine’s future. From the very beginning, we aimed to create an independent intellectual platform that provides objective insights and analyses on national and regional issues, free from polarization.
We believe that knowledge is power and that rigorous research is a powerful tool for change. Therefore, we have strengthened our partnerships locally and internationally, striving to provide policymakers with well-founded recommendations based on objectivity and scientific neutrality.
We remain committed to our mission—to be a platform for thought and analysis, contributing to a more stable and prosperous future for Palestine and the region.
