Sawt el-Amel (The Laborer’s Voice) supports unemployed and working poor Palestinian Arab citizens of Israel in their struggle for socio-economic justice and against discrimination in the labour market and welfare system. The organisation works towards legal and political change through collective and individual legal action, advocacy and public awareness campaigns, and empowerment of the Arab population in Israel. Sawt el-Amel’s programme activities are based on the universal right of everyone to an adequate standard of living, free from want and free from fear.

In our vision all Palestinian Arab citizens of Israel have the means and opportunity to achieve economic self-sufficiency as equal citizens in a democratic state.
