Ensuring Sustainable Democratic Governance and Human Rights in the Southern Mediterranean (SNAC 3 Palestine*)

Palestine* joined the South Programme framework in 2017. So far, the SNAC Project provided support to the Palestinian authorities in the promotion of good governance and prevention of corruption and money laundering in line with European and international standards, mainly through capacity-building activities.

Within the scope of the SNAC 3 Project, the Council of Europe will undertake an assessment of corruption risks in the justice sector. By means of this assessment, the Council of Europe will produce country specific recommendations for national policy makers to tackle identified corruption vulnerabilities in the judiciary.

The Palestinian anti-corruption authorities will also benefit from a range of joint capacity building activities with their Jordanian counterparts on asset recovery, financial investigations into proceeds of crimes, detection of suspicious transactions related to PEPs and corruption and corruption risk assessment methodology.

Back Risk Assessment of the Palestinian Judiciary

Within the scope of the on-going Risk Assessment of the Palestinian Judiciary, on 10-11 February 2020 the South Neighbourhood Anti-Corruption Project organised bilateral meetings in Strasbourg with the representatives of the Palestinian High Judicial Council, Attorney General’s Office, the Constitutional Court as well as the Palestinian Anti-Corruption Commission . The purpose of the meetings was to discuss and verify the responses provided by the representatives of the Palestinian judiciary to the risk assessment questionnaires developed by the Project, and to present the preliminary findings of the assessment. The information gathered during these meetings will help the Project team to make a qualified and balanced analysis of corruption risks in the Palestinian judiciary, as well as to provide recommendations on risk mitigation measures.
