The world is in an urgent need of accurate and objective information especially from one of, most probably, the hottest spots on earth: the Palestinian Territories.  Here, the elements of “change” and “time” seem to be manufactured, produced, and distributed every changing minute for people to catch up with.  A missed piece of information becomes history within seconds.

The Bethlehem Media Net (“BMN”) responds to such demand by offering the human angle of the infamous Palestinian-Israeli conflict, by portraying a people who believes in and thrives for peace and fights and resists in another form hoping for better times.

As part of its contribution to the world of media, both at the local and international levels, the BMN also offers professional technical assistance to freelance journalists as well as to media agencies and personnel who are yearning to better reporting the world from an angle not only different from that of an often-told story, but also from where the actual events break. 

Established in the fall of 2003, the BMN is administered and operated by the Bethlehem Media Center (www.annadwa.org), the goal of which is to echo the “voice of the voiceless”, especially that of children, the youth and women.  By providing training in journalistic skills and developing the opportunities for people to say their opinion, Bethlehem Media Center can offer a more exact and democratic voice to the outer world.
