Hanitzotz - A Sharara Publishing House (HPH)
is a non-profit organization founded in 1985 by human-rights activists in Israel. Our primary goal is a just solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. We call for the emergence of a viable, sovereign Palestinian State in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. We also seek full equality for those Arabs who live inside Israel, as well as acknowledgement of their Palestinian national identity.

HPH is unique in its combination of research with grassroots work. Our motto is "Awareness + Action." Our publications supply people with the information they need in order to fight for their rights. We help to organize communities in order to carry that fight forward..

In 1992 HPH members joined forces with residents of Majd al-Krum, an Arab village in Galilee. Together we founded the Baqa Cultural Center there. Baqa soon became involved in projects concerning all spheres of life in the village, forming a model of grassroots work. In the spring of 1995 we founded a new Baqa Center in Jaffa. Here too we are seeking to provide the community with the means to fight discrimination.
