RO’A hosts focus group to examine Dr. Ammar Dwaik’s paper, “Exploring the Palestinian Elections: Lessons, Challenges, and Opportunities.”
The session fostered a critical dialogue on electoral dynamics, governance structures, and pathways for democratic reform. Key discussions centered on youth political participation, institutional accountability, and strategies for ensuring inclusive and credible elections.
The paper provides a comprehensive analysis of Palestinian elections, reviewing their historical context, lessons from past experiences, and persistent challenges. It examines presidential, legislative, and local elections since the establishment of the Palestinian Authority, assessing the legal frameworks, political circumstances, and key observations on their implementation.
By facilitating this exchange of diverse perspectives, RO’A continues to advance informed policy debates on Palestine’s political future.
