Since the revolution in Syria broke out in 2011, the situation there has developed into a violent conflict. Our attention has thus shifted toward protecting civilians and building peace.
That makes working in Syria difficult, but it also means that the conflict is becoming ever deeper and more difficult to resolve. The international community’s hesitancy and disunity have contributed to this.
Syria Alerts
We publish “Syria Alerts”. These are policy briefs of varying length shared with policymakers. Syria Alerts address various topics, including war crimes, call for recognition of the Syrian opposition as legitimate representation, the use of starvation as a weapon of war, demographic engineering and the situation in besieged areas.
By providing for factual information and clear recommendations PAX informs national and international policymakers, and advocates for measures that protect civilians and support freedom, justice and dignity in Syria.
