The International Solidarity Movement was founded in August 2001 after the Second Intifada by activists from Palestine, Israel and the USA, who were active on the ground resisting against Israeli settler attacks. For 25 years activists have maintained a presence in Palestine in areas where Palestinians are particularly at risk from settler attacks and land theft.

The ISM is a Palestinian-led movement based in the West Bank (and formerly in the Gaza Strip). The need for greater coordination and leadership by and with Palestinian activists has been the backbone of the movement, working alongside international supporters who joined the struggle against apartheid and ethnic cleansing in their homeland.

For the 25th Anniversary of ISM work on the ground, ISM Germany is excited to invite you to hear the accounts of Palestinian activist Mohammad Hureini from Massafer Yatta (founder of Youth of Sumud) and activists that have recently been on the ground in the West Bank.

We will discuss the need for solidarity presence and documentation amidst the current escalation of land theft and violence, the importance of coordination with Palestinians themselves, and the need for more international activists on the ground.

19:00-20:00: Moderated conversation with Mohammad Hureini (from Massafer Yatta, Palestine) and activists who were recently on the ground in the West Bank. Q&A will follow.
