The CDS Child’s Rights Program is a culmination of activities and efforts in research and community development carried out over the years that have interacted continuously with the shifting Palestinian reality in light of the colonial condition. Over time, CDS has developed extensive expertise in research and community development pertaining to the realities of marginalized groups and in particular the focus on the realities of Palestinian children which is considered a current priority in CDS in relation to our research projects and community development activities. Notable recent projects include Researching research with Palestinian Children: The question of research methodologies and ethics. 

We are currently also working on a current project within this program, aiming to develop a research line through the project: The socialization of Palestinian Children – Research line
