Organization philosophy

Jesoor Philosophy is based on responding to macroscopic view of
health needs of people, individually and collectively, aiming to
move people forward, beyond their challenges. Our hope for
peace, freedom and democracy, which is a universal wish that all
people and societies share, lies in strengthening capacity building,
contextual research studies and a greater involvement of people in
embracing their own health related issues, while equipping health
professionals with interdisciplinary skills able to advocate from
within, effective meaningful social, economic and cultural changes
that includes the needs for fresh perspectives about the relational
concept that is the right to health approach. Capacity building that
is based on contextual research studies in regions where human
rights respects are highly needed is an important first step in
understanding and intervening in the psychosocial and cultural
degenerative effects of human rights abuse and traumatic
experiences on individuals and their societies.

It is our philosophy that health in its wider perspective includes an
inseparable bio-psychosocial link that must be emphasized in the
relationship between health and human rights and is that equipping
health and allied professions with the needed knowledge and skills
that would enable them to be therapeutic interventionists and
advocates are key issues in community development and changes.
We understand and believe that human rights and democracy are
promoted through an acceptable child rearing practices, family and
community awareness, breaking the cycle of violence, and are
maintained, from within, the community itself by effective and
meaningful social, economic and cultural changes, which is not
imported by and from other communities.
