GLOBAL SOLIDARITY FOR PEACE IN PALESTINE CONFERENCE:  Implementation of International Law to Stop the Genocide

Sat Oct 19, 10-11:30 am Pacific time, online

Join us for an urgent and transformative global conference, “Implementation of International Law to Stop the Genocide”, organized by Global Solidarity for Peace in Palestine (GSPP). This event will bring together activists, peacebuilders, and human rights advocates from around the world to address the ongoing war in Gaza and the systemic oppression Palestinians are facing by Israeli occupation.

For over 75 years, the Palestinian people have endured relentless occupation, apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and violations of their fundamental human rights.   Today, as the violence intensifies in Gaza, our collective voice is needed more than ever. Global solidarity is key to ending these atrocities, implementing international law, and restoring justice and peace to Palestine.

Global Movement for Justice: Join voices from across the globe, including representatives from SERAPAZ, Palestinian Youth Association for Leadership and Rights Activation (PYALARA), International Peace Bureau (IPB), Inter-American Institute for Peace and Reconciliation (INSPyRE A.C), Global Exchange, Pax Christi International (PCI), International Fellowship of Reconciliation (IFOR), Fellowship of Reconciliation-USA (FOR-USA), World BEYOND War, Weaponized Drone Ban Treaty Campaign (WDBT), Peace Boat, and other organizations fighting for peace, justice, and human rights.

Distinguished Speakers: Hear from leading experts, including Hania Bitar, CEO of PYALARA; Kathy Kelly, World BEYOND War; Professor Abdelhamid Siyam from Rutgers University, who will offer insights into the current crisis and the necessary legal frameworks for achieving peace; and Reiner Braun of the International Peace Bureau, who will make the case for the need for trade sanctions and an arms embargo against Israel.  Call to Action: The conference will conclude with a powerful call to action led by Miguel Alvarez of SERAPAZ, mobilizing participants to stand against the occupation and push for global accountability.  Introduction and Closing Q&A and conclusions facilitated by Susan Smith of FOR-USA and IFOR.

This is a free, virtual event open to everyone committed to peace and justice.
