JOIN US AS A VOLUNTEER IN THE WEST BANK
Army attacks and settler violence have increased in the West Bank. Now, more than ever, we need volunteers to show physical solidarity with Palestinian communities in the West Bank.
About Us
The International Solidarity Movement Palestine started in 2001 during the Second Intifada, emerging from international indifference to the Palestinian situation. A small group of Palestinians and internationals began working together on Palestinian-led non-violent direct action, such as removing roadblocks.
Over the years, direct action methods have evolved in response to increased settler violence and army attacks. With the current dire situation on the ground, solidarity with Palestinians in the West Bank is more crucial than ever.
The Dutch branch of ISM as founded in December, 2024 by four volunteers who had returned from the West Bank.
