Targets

$\"\"$

Since its establishment and until now The Association of Forty has worked on achieving many of the goals specified in its founding program which it was decided to adopt and implement, relying on the Association\'s experience and expertise and on the circumstances and developments which accompanied its work.

The basic targets to be achieved by The Association of Forty are:

$\"\"$ Official recognition of all the unrecognized Arab villages and other localities in Israel.

$\"\"$ Improving the living conditions of the residents of these villages.

$\"\"$ The struggle against land confiscation and demolishing Arab houses.

$\"\"$ Establishing local committees in the unrecognized villages and helping them to administer the villages and to present their cases.

$\"\"$ Strengthening the interest and participation of the residents of these villages in all stages of the struggle, in order to achieve recognition of their villages and to obtain their rights.

$\"\"$ Initiating the formulation of new draft laws and presenting them to the Knesset through the parliamentary lobby in all that concerns the rights and equality of the Arab community. Recruiting existing local and international general opinion to support these villages and the struggle of their residents, and to support the solution plans which the Association presents through exerting pressure on the Israeli government to adopt them and to implement equality and basic human rights for the residents of these villages, specifically, and for the Arab minority generally. Recruiting the necessary material support from official and unofficial institutions for achieving the targets of the Association.

$\"\"$ Creating an atmosphere of coexistence between the residents of these villages and their neighbors in particular, and between the two peoples of the State in general.
