Arabs Against Discrimination is a non-governmental organization legally registered in France. AAD was established by a group of concerned Arabs with the aim of exposing and combating all forms of discrimination and racism which contravene human rights covenants and established international law, using all possible media, legal and cultural channels to achieve this aim.While concerned with combating discrimination and racism the world over, AAD focuses on exposing such discrimination and racism as are practiced in Israeli society, including those against sections of that society itself (Israeli Arabs, Oriental Jews, blacks, women, etc.), or against other peoples and/or religious groups. In choosing this focus AAD hopes to help remedy the current situation whereby such Israeli practices, which contravene international human rights covenants, tend to be overlooked by most organizations and groups working in the field of combating racism and discrimination around the world.
AAD activities also include facing up to the campaigns organized by Israeli and Zionist organizations which, through the translation and distribution of Arabic media materials, try to create an impression of rampant anti-Semitism in the Arab world.
Over all, AAD acts to promote and foster the values and traditions of tolerance, acceptance and respect for otherness, and coexistence between different cultures, religions, civilizations and peoples. Such values are integral to Arab culture throughout its history.
