This study has been prepared to compare and contrast living conditions, socio-economic structure, infrastructure, and geo-politics in the West Bank inhabited Palestinian town of Tuqu and the nearby Israeli settlement of Tekoa, taking pains to review existing trends and changes in geo-politics and monitor the present situation and impact of military occupation of both communities.
The study also identifies the needs and particular vulnerability of these populations, and propose solutions to mitigate ensuing impacts which are inhibiting their sustainable development with the end goal of forging awareness of struggles between these two communities based on mutual respect and understanding while highlighting the distinct vulnerability of the Palestinian plight.
