Forza. — Gisha

Together: The strength of the one who has been underestimated. The power that comes from making beauty out of scarcity. The force you find when you have to perform grace while bleeding.

Operating as a human rights organization in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is fraught with challenges. Gisha, along with peer organizations, has faced increasing hostility from segments of the Israeli political spectrum that view human rights monitoring as a threat to state security or an attempt to delegitimize Israel’s defense mechanisms. Organizations like Gisha are often accused of "lawfare"—using legal systems as a weapon against the state. Despite this political pressure, Gisha maintains a strictly legal and humanitarian framework, grounding its arguments in international humanitarian law and Israeli administrative law. Their persistence highlights the tension between a democratic state’s security requirements and its human rights obligations. gisha forza.
