The lives of Israelis and Palestinians have been shaped by collective loss, trauma and fear. Israeli occupation and an extreme imbalance of power mean that millions of Palestinians live under oppression and in poverty.

The war in Gaza has demonstrated how urgently people in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territory need a just peace.

Everyday, ordinary Palestinians and Israelis stand up for dignity, equality and a just peace, often at great cost. Let’s stand with them.

On this page you will find films, resources and actions to inspire your church to pursue a just peace.
