Our Values and Responsibilities:

• Empowering Small Farmers and the Marginalized:


We are committed to supporting small farmers and the marginalized. To facilitate this mission, the Palestinian Fertile Land Alliance was established, aiming to promote fair trade and organic practices in Palestine. The alliance includes farmers, cooperatives, agricultural experts, advisors, companies, and NGOs. Our goal is to support livelihoods and preserve the land by creating sustainable markets for impoverished agricultural communities.


• “Trees for Palestine” Initiative:

The “Trees for Palestine: Planting Peace in Palestine” initiative was launched to support Palestinian farmers in facing challenges that threaten their lands. By providing two-year-old or older olive saplings, the initiative seeks to strengthen the resilience of farmers and preserve Palestinian agricultural heritage. The initiative focuses on compensating for the destruction of olive trees due to Israeli assaults, preserving traditional varieties like “Nabali” and “Surri,” and ensuring the continuation of sustainable, traditional farming methods.Through these core values and initiatives, Al’Ard remains steadfast in our commitment to uplifting Palestinian communities, preserving our heritage, and building a sustainable future for all.


• Social Responsibility:

We strive to make a significant economic and social impact on Palestinian agricultural and productive communities. We assist farmers in improving their investments and expanding their lands, giving cooperative members greater independence and a stronger voice within their communities. We are committed to supporting more prosperous and dignified lives for agricultural communities through sustainable development strategies.

• Environmental Responsibility:

We believe in ethical and ecological farming practices, combining traditional local knowledge with modern scientific expertise to preserve the environment and enhance natural systems. Our goal is to achieve better sustainability and improved livelihoods for farmers through sustainable and efficient farming methods.


• Empowering Women:

Al’Ard is deeply committed to supporting Palestinian women, with fairness as a fundamental part of our mission. We strive to create job opportunities for women, recognizing their vital role in the development of the Palestinian economy. By strengthening women’s cooperatives and providing a supportive work environment for those in need, we aim to empower women to achieve their aspirations and make a meaningful contribution to society. We actively support women’s cooperatives such as the Beita Soapmaking Association and the Dura Couscous Production Association, among others. This support has provided many women with the opportunity to engage in productive projects. Furthermore, we establish partnerships with these cooperatives to equip women with the essential technical and managerial skills, helping to enhance their developmental role.
