The project aims to disrupt the digital model of THB by improving the digital capabilities of law enforcement and judicial authorities, focusing on two points for the disruption: recruitment and advertisement, considering that the methods used in terms of language, platforms, targets, and strategies vary according to the profiles of the victims and the type of exploitation.

The Executive Secretary of the Euro-Arab Foundation, Pilar Aranda, has met with the President of the European Association for Cooperation with Palestine (ASECOP) Yehad Suleiman Rashid.

During the interview, Dr. Suleiman spoke about the extreme situation of the Palestinian population in Gaza and the need to put an end to the desperate situation suffered by the population. Pilar Aranda informed the president of ASECOP of the communiqué issued by the Spanish Network of the Anna Lindh Euro-Mediterranean Foundation, of which Euro-Arab is a member, in which the demand for an immediate, just and lasting ceasefire in Gaza is expressed.

COMMUNIQUÉ DENOUNCING THE CURRENT SITUATION SUFFERED BY THE PEOPLE OF GAZA

The Executive Committee of the Spanish Network of the ALF, of which the Euro-Arab Foundation is a member, joins the campaign to denounce the situation in Gaza. The Anna Lindh Foundation, as stated by its president, André Azoulay, is at the heart of the human construction of the Euro-Mediterranean partnership, and rejects this fate of hatred and calls for the mobilisation of the 43 founding countries of the Union for the Mediterranean, to impose an immediate ceasefire.

We witness the extermination of innocents with indignation. Justifications, which may come from any of the parties involved, can have no hearing in the face of the massacre of civilians and the violation of human rights that is being committed in Gaza. Yesterday, we saw civilian positions and UN schools being attacked. Just today, we witnessed the attack on the UN’s own humanitarian aid convoys.

From here we claim that dialogue and knowledge of the other are the only weapons to bury conflicts and put an end to fear and pain.

This dialogue must be recovered, as has been supported since the beginnings of the Foundation, as happened on 22 May 2008, when the 43 countries united in this Network, including Palestine and Israel, jointly celebrated actions for dialogue between cultures, regardless of any politics, ideology and religion.

Today, the important thing is to denounce and act, as demanded by the Foundation’s management and many international forums, to stop this humanitarian disaster. We are also with the Israelis who suffer the threat of rockets, but today it is the million and a half civilians suffering in this open-air prison, now in flames, which is Gaza, who need immediate action.

We demand an immediate, just and lasting ceasefire. Now.
