29. November is the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. On this day, we want to show our solidarity with Palestinians through actions across the country. Join us and make the day visible where you live!

Three years have now passed since the genocide in Gaza began, and the suffering continues. At the same time, Israel is making life in the West Bank unlivable for Palestinians. Amnesty is clear in its conclusion: The state of Israel is deliberately working to erase Palestinian communities in the West Bank as part of its policy of ethnic cleansing. This can no longer continue.

Organize or Join a Local Solidarity Event

Organize or join an event in your area. In many places across the country, other organizations will be holding events on this day. If something is already planned where you live, feel free to get in touch and ask whether Amnesty can help, for example, with organizing by collecting signatures, or by delivering a speech.

At the bottom of the page, you can find the campaigns we are aiming to gather signatures for by 29 November.
Note! If you are considering becoming a co-organizer or participating in an event organized by another organization, please consult the office beforehand to ensure that Amnesty can support and stand behind the event.

Contact [email protected] if you have questions about what you can do, or if you are planning an action where you live where you would like help or input.

Christmas Tree Lightning

November 29 is also the First Sunday of Advent. For this reason, Christmas tree lightings are held in many cities and towns. Hand out warm beverages and gingerbread and encourage bypassers to use the day to show solidarity with Palestinians and to sign Amnesty’s actions for the West Bank.

Christmas Crafts for Palestine

Invite people to make bracelets and keychains in Palestinian colors, or in Amnesty colors, and make solidarity visible. This can either be a social gathering for the group or an open event. You can give away what you make at a stand in exchange for a donation to Amnesty, and use the activity to spark conversations and engagement on human rights.

Create a Solidarity Banner Togheter

Forslag til interaktiv bannermal
Idea form the youth group at the International School of Bergen

Create a solidarity banner and invite others to add their personal touch with drawings and short messages. Banners can be made locally or as part of a larger collective event for the day of action.

Here is a suggestion for how a banner can be created interactively. Here, bypassers are invited to leave a painted handprint on the banner to create an interactive message of solidarity.
