Identify Initiatives Rooted in Palestinian Self-Reliance

We actively seek out organizations, ventures, and initiatives aligned with a vision of sustainable Palestinian self-determination. Our identification process prioritizes those with strong leadership, a clear mission, and potential for meaningful long-term community impact.

Why It Matters:

  • Mapping of organizations working in key need areas
  • Establishing criteria for alignment and mission coherence
  • Early discovery of innovations that can be nurtured

Evaluate Capacity, Leadership & Impact Potential

Once identified, we perform a structured evaluation to understand each initiative’s leadership, organizational strength, and ability to make measurable impact. This ensures our support is invested where it can do the most good.

Why It Matters:

  • Organizational diagnostics and gap analysis
  • Leadership assessment & growth potential
  • Feasibility reports or readiness scoring

Pilot Projects to Test Feasibility & Scalability

Pilots are short-term experiments or test cases to validate ideas in the field. We help organizations prototype, test, measure outcomes, and learn what works (or what needs adjusting) before scaling.

Why It Matters:

  • Small-scale project trials or proof-of-concepts (POCs)
  • Data collection & outcome measurement
  • Lessons learned & refinement of the model

Align with Strategic Partners, Resources & Shared Goals

We don’t just support in isolation. We bring together complementary organizations, resources, and shared goals to avoid duplication, increase efficiency, and amplify impact through strategic alignment.

Why It Matters:

  • Partner matchmaking (organizations, funders, mentors)
  • Shared planning and goal-setting across initiatives
  • Resource leverage (e.g., shared services, knowledge, networks)

Accelerate Growth with Funding, Mentorship & Access

For selected initiatives, we fast-track impact by providing funding opportunities, mentorship, capacity support, and access to wider networks — including diaspora expertise and global investor connections — so they can scale sustainably and responsibly.

Why It Matters:

  • Access to mentorship and advisors
  • Growth capital or funding support
  • Market access & networks for scale
  • Structured growth plans & milestone tracking
