THE PLEDGE
In solidarity with the people of Palestine and to support our colleagues in Palestine who work under these extreme circumstances, we pledge:

  • to “do no harm,” refusing to lend our support to activities which explicitly or implicitly normalize the occupation and justify Israel’s role in it
  • to support and, where possible, to participate in acts of witnessing, documenting, and researching the experiences of the Palestinian people
  • to support initiatives encouraging our professional groups and organizations to take a moral stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine
