The Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI) is the only NGO in Israel advocating across the broad spectrum of human rights and civil liberties for everyone living in Israel and in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

The mandate of this independent and non-partisan organization is to ensure Israel’s accountability and respect for human rights. It is committed to promoting and defending the human rights and civil liberties of all, regardless of religion, nationality, gender, ethnicity, political affiliation, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic background.

ACRI pursues change through advocacy, legal action, education, and public engagement to demand that Israel adheres to democratic principles.

Their education work includes advancing a human rights education curriculum through intensive work with teacher training colleges, universities, and the Israeli Ministry of Education.

They believe that people should be partners in social change. That’s why we encourage a public discourse about human rights and promote our issues and ideals in social and print media in Hebrew, Arabic and English.
