ALWATAN Center was visited by Ms. Dzouyi Konanga, a staff member of the United Nations Development Programme UNDP as part of a mapping exercise they are doing with Birzeit University, Swiss Peace and Palthink, to identify Civil Society Organizations, networks and individuals working on activities related to Palestinian reconciliation.

The Center facilitated meetings with members, activists and leaders of different Palestinian political factions including Hamas and Fatah, leaders of the marginalized communities,  the Bedouin leaders of the region of Hebron and the cave dwellers.

Discussions were inclusive, participatory and genuine among all parties calling for  reconciliation particularly between Fatah and Hamas.
