The members of Joining Hands for Justice in Palestine and Israel | | For 20 years JHJPI has advocated for an end to the 71-year-old Israeli Occupation of Palestine, through education, advocacy and working together with allies in Metro Atlanta and in the Presbyterian Church (USA).
Our education efforts over the years have included: - Leading and sponsoring trips to Palestine/Israel for participants to see the "facts on the ground" of the Occupation.
- Hosting and sponsoring conferences, speakers and films. Past events and conferences have included journalists and academics David Sheen, Josh Ruebner, and Noura Erakat; theologians Rev. Naim Ateek and Rev. Mitri Raheb; activists Rana Nazal, Benjamin Ladraa, and Remi Kanazi; and filmmakers Leila Sansour and Kathy Wazana.
Our advocacy efforts include meeting with state and federal officials about issues including: - Imprisonment of Palestinian children
- Illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank
- State and federal attempts to stop the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement in the U.S.
Our U.S. partners and allies include: - Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP)
- Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), Emory, Georgia State and University of Georgia
- Presbytery of Greater Atlanta Peacemaking Program
- Israel Palestine Mission Network (PCUSA)
- CAIR, Georgia
- American Muslims for Palestine
- Project South
We can't do this work without your ongoing support. Please consider a gift to JHJPI and let's work for an end to the Occupation!
