The Palestinian people’s struggle for freedom, justice and equality needs your support. We will share information about the the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement that works to end international support for Israel's oppression of Palestinians and to pressure Israel to comply with international law. The Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI), initiated in 2004, is a founding member of the Palestinian BDS. The PACBI advocates for a boycott of Israeli academic and cultural institutions for their deep and persistent complicity in Israel’s denial of Palestinian rights that are stipulated in international law.

Débora Poo is an organizer with  Palestina Mx / BDS PACBI. She is a photojournalist and she studied International Relations.
