Any Palestinian who has made a demonstrable contribution to the life of his or her community can become a member of Al-Shabaka, within the framework of its vision and principles. Members contribute in several ways: * Engaging in debate and posting feedback about Al-Shabaka’s policy briefs . * Disseminating Al-Shabaka’s policy analysis and opinions through media contacts and other outreach throughout the world. * Editing and translation into Arabic, English, and, eventually, Hebrew.

Policy Advisors are the foundation of Al-Shabaka’s “virtual think tank.” Policy Advisors are established and recognized Palestinian scholars, writers, cultural figures, and others who have made significant contributions in the public sphere and who agree with Al-Shabaka’s vision and principles.
