The US just imposed sanctions on UN human rights expert Francesca Albanese – because she spoke out for Gaza. But what better way to show where the world really stands than build a massive call to give her and the doctors caring for people in Gaza the Nobel Peace Prize? Nominations for Francesca are gathering steam, join now:

Dear friends,
|
She spoke out – now the Trump administration is punishing Francesca Albanese, the UN Rapporteur for the West Bank and Gaza, with sanctions.
Nominations for a Nobel Peace Prize for Francesca Albanese are gathering steam. Meanwhile, she keeps centering those most at risk: everyone struggling in Gaza.
There are millions of us across the world! Together we can use this moment to show we have her back, and want the world’s most prestigious prize to go to her and the doctors caring for people in Gaza. Join now and share it with everyone:

Francesca Albanese has been one of the fiercest voices urging action on human rights abuses, unafraid to call out politicians, and companies profiting off the genocide, even when it put her in the crosshairs of Israel and the US. And the doctors -- within Gaza and those coming in from abroad to help -- have been the moral voices raising the alarm again and again, trying to get politicians to act.
She used her independent platform to stand up for others, now let’s stand up for her. Through the symbolic act of showing how many people across the world would happily see her and the doctors receive a Nobel Peace Prize we can create a counterbalance to the threats and intimidation.
Join to make this call huge, and we will deliver it to Francesca, to the doctors and in the media:

When brave people like Francesca take great personal risk to speak truth to power, let’s make sure we show them they’re not alone – that there are hundreds of thousands of us across the world who have her back, and believe she deserves recognition, not sanctions, for her important work. Add your name and share it along to friends and family if it feels right. Avaaz will deliver it directly.
With hope,
Antonia, Marco, Huiting, Harriet and the whole Avaaz team
