Hence, the Association advocates for the recognition of the right to International Solidarity, which it defines as, ‘The union of interests or purposes among countries, and social cohesion between them, based upon the dependence of States and other international actors on each other, in order to preserve the order and very survival of international society, and in order to achieve collective goals, which require international cooperation and joint action’.

The Association is present in different countries of Mediterranean Area: Italy; Spain; Albania; Croatia, Israel/Palestine. In particular, we are present in the West Bank since 2002 to promote peace building among Palestinian and Israeli civil society. Our action aims to transform the violent conflict between ultra-orthodox settlers and local palestinians in the South Hebron Hills area. We want to join the ALF Network to improve public opinion and media awareness of the South Hebron Hills situation, and to spread the nonviolent conflict resolution method. We are interested also in meeting other associations who work to promote intercultural dialogue and peace building activities in Mediterranean Area.
