About NGO Monitor
NGO Monitor is on the front lines of the fight against BDS and the false human rights groups who seek to undermine Israel’s democracy. NGO Monitor provides information and analysis, promotes accountability, and supports discussion on the activities of NGOs claiming to advance human rights. NGO Monitor conducts groundbreaking research exposing the irresponsible nongovernmental organizations in Israel that use underhanded tactics in the name of human rights. Many of these subversive organizations are funded by European government to the tune of millions of dollars. NGO Monitor has successfully lobbied European governments, convincing some of them to stop funding organizations that engage in defamation and hate against the only Jewish State.
In 2013, Professor Steinberg accepted the prestigious Menachem Begin Prize on behalf of NGO Monitor, recognizing its “Efforts exposing the political agenda and ideological basis of humanitarian organizations that use the Discourse of human rights to discredit Israel and to undermine its position among the nations of the world.”
