Palestine concerns you! It matters to everyone who is dedicated to human rights, committed to supporting stateless people, and invested in multilateralism. To understand how each of us can stand in meaningful solidarity with the Palestinian people and contribute towards stronger, more effective action in response to the genocide in Gaza, we must start by listening to Palestine. Join us for a Global Voices Insights in Arabic and English for a conversation about what statelessness and belonging, solidarity and resistance, mean in the Palestinian experience.
Join us on Zoom on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, at 1:00 pm BST/ 2:00 pm CET / 3:00 pm Palestine / 8:00 am EST for this discussion featuring:
