What Is Jerusalem?
The starting point for anyone wanting to grasp the realities faced by Jerusalem’s Palestinians

Who Are the Palestinians of Jerusalem?
Palestinians comprise nearly half the population of Jerusalem and have built, and shaped, the city for centuries, yet their stories are rarely told.

The West Side Story
The erased and all-too-often forgotten violent history of how West Jerusalem came to be
Land and Space

Land
In Jerusalem as in the rest of the country, land is the locus of the struggle for control. Here we explore the status of land in Jerusalem and its environs.

Settlements
Israel has used Jewish settlement as a pivotal strategy to control, disrupt, and radically transform the Jerusalem geopolitical landscape.

Forcible Home Expulsions
How the city of Jerusalem works in tandem with the settler organizations to take away Palestinians’ private homes by force.
Access, Mobility, and Fragmentation

Closure and Access to Jerusalem
Jerusalem is known as an open, international, “city of peace.” For millions of Palestinians, however, it is a closed, virtually unreachable, city.

The Separation Wall
Israel's Separation Wall, called al-jidar by Palestinians, has drastically reshaped the geopolitical fabric of Jerusalem.

Neighborhoods beyond the Wall
The 10 abandoned Palestinian neighborhoods of Jerusalem destined for excision from the city
Status, Voice, and Governance

Precarious Status
Most Palestinian Jerusalemites have a legal status that is unique in the world: Although they are indigenous, they are stateless.

Representation
Who represents Palestinian Jerusalemites?
Home, Family, Mind, and Soul

Education

Spiritual and Religious Life
For centuries, Jerusalem has been holy to the three monotheistic religions. What are the realities facing those who wish to worship in this treasured holy space today?
Community Capacity

Surveillance and Detention
How do ubiquitous surveillance, mass arrests, and prolonged detentions facilitate Israel’s iron grip of control over Palestinian Jerusalemites?
