Taybeh and the surrounding Triangle region suffer from a number of serious social, political, economic and communal failures. Civil society is nearly non-existent; where it exists, initiatives tend to be poorly managed, ineffective and unsustainable.
Despite the difficult local circumstances, a number of young adults and women from Taybeh have demonstrated impressive achievements, strong leadership skills and high motivation levels. However, they lack an institutional framework that can facilitate action. Tishreen sees the necessity of reversing the pervasive sense of helplessness of our society, by providing these dedicated activists with opportunities for grassroots social activism. Accordingly, through us, they receive training, on-going guidance, resources and opportunities for networking.
