Welcome back to Fresh Look! We’re excited to have you join us today for Episode 5 featuring world-renowned Palestinian human rights activist, Bassem Eid. Bassem was born in East Jerusalem and rose to prominence during the First Intifada as a senior researcher for B’Tselem. He founded the Jerusalem-based Palestinian Human Rights Monitoring Group and later assumed the role of chairman of the Center for Near East Policy Research. In response to the deterioration of the human rights situation under the Palestinian Authority, Bassem Eid founded the Palestinian Human Rights Monitoring Group, a non-partisan human rights organization dedicated to exposing human rights violations and supporting a democratic and pluralistic Palestine. Bassem has spent decades researching UNRWA policies and has written extensively on the subject of UNRWA reform. He also is an outspoken critic of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement. Welcome to the show Bassem Eid!
