What do you do when the streets aren't safe for women? You go out to the streets anyway.

In 2018, thousands of South African women marched against gender-based violence in a powerful show of collective resistance. Dressed in coordinating black and red, they chanted, carried signs, and refused to be silent, turning grief into organized, visible demand for change.

Marches like this one have moved governments, shifted public opinion, and built movements across the world. Explore 300+ nonviolent tactics on our free database: https://www.tactics.nonviolenceinternational.net/

Since the ethnic cleansing of Ras ‘Ein al ‘Auja, the same settlers have shifted their attention to smaller communities in the southern Jordan valley. As their acts of violence, harassment and terrorism are steadily increasing, we are looking to recruit UCP practitioners both to join our current team as soon as possible, and Team 6 which will deploy from August-October. If you are interested please fill out the form in the comments, where you can also indicate which dates would suit you best.

You will join an experienced and dedicated team and engage in meaningful solidarity. Training and accommodation are provided.

The Palestine Lab.
The phrase battle-tested is not a metaphor, it's a mechanism. When we describe Palestine as a laboratory, we’re naming how surveillance tools, artificial intelligence targeting systems and weapons are tested on a civilian population living under occupation without any consent or accountability.

These tools do not stay there. Surveillance and weapons systems come back into our own policing, our own borders and our own wars.

The Justice for Palestine Campaign is uniting a growing movement calling on the European Union to suspend its Association Agreement with Israel until international law and human rights are upheld and justice is served for the Palestinian people.

We need 1.5 million signatures to make it happen. Your support will make a difference. Let’s do it! Link in bio!

What does Nonviolence actually mean?

Nonviolence is a disciplined method of struggle that confronts injustice without reproducing the same cycles of harm. It is about building power differently. It is a method that requires training, coordination, discipline, strategy, and long-term commitment.

Nonviolence resistance, in the face of current events, must be scaled to challenge the full structure of power — political, economic and ideological, that sustain injustice.

NVI’s online database of nonviolent tactics and the book Civil Resistance Tactics of the 21st Century expands our tool kit and helps us re-imagine nonviolent action. Access them here: www.tactics.nonviolenceinternational.net
