“I am stuck in Egypt as I was on my way back to Gaza when the war started and here, I am now, stranded away from my house, my family, my country, and my life. I am not sure when and how I will be able to resume work normally, and I even wonder if our work will retain any value if we lose our homeland.”
Like us PENGON are campaigning for a fairer, greener future. They’re delivering climate action – like setting up renewable energy projects – amid a devastating conflict and ongoing illegal occupation.
“Before the war, my daily drive to my office in Ramallah was one hour, now it takes me at least 3 hours to reach the office and 3 hours to get back home. The Israeli army blocked all the entrances to the cities and villages, this affected the ability to reach the communities that we tend to serve through our projects.”
There can be no environmental justice where there is war. That’s why we’re calling for a ceasefire. Telling our leaders to stop being complicit in violations of international law. Condemning human rights abuses, whoever the perpetrator. And demanding that MPs instead stand up for sustained peace by ending the illegal occupation of Palestinian territories for good.
