Our Commitments
The Land
Palestinian Indigeneity
Our mission is grounded in the unwavering belief that the right of return for all Palestinians is a fundamental and inalienable right—one that is deeply tied to the Palestinian people’s historical, cultural, and spiritual connection to their ancestral lands. The displacement of Palestinians over the past century has been a violation of both international law and the fundamental rights of an indigenous population. The land of Palestine is not merely a geographic location but the heart of Palestinian identity, heritage, and self-determination.
The right of return is not just a political demand—it is a critical step toward addressing the ongoing injustice of dispossession and the denial of Palestinian sovereignty. For Palestinians, returning to their homes is a matter of restoring what was taken, healing historical wounds, and reaffirming their connection to a land that has been theirs for millennia. We express our full support for the right of return in all of historic Palestine, understanding that this is not just a matter of returning to individual homes, but the reclamation of Palestinian sovereignty, dignity, and identity.
The land of Palestine is also central to the liberation of the Palestinian people. We are steadfast in our belief that true justice for Palestinians cannot be achieved without the full liberation of Palestine. This includes the restoration of all of Palestine to its rightful inhabitants and an end to colonial and apartheid systems that seek to deny this fundamental right.
Interconnected Solidarities
Coalition-building for Justice
We recognize that achieving justice for Palestinians requires collective action on a global scale. Our work is focused on building interconnected solidarity by forging coalitions primarily between local and national organizations in Canada but also with the broader international movements for Palestine. We collaborate with Palestinian organizations and solidarity groups, human rights defenders, labor unions, and justice movements to create a unified front for advocacy and action.
We also recognize that resistance to colonial occupation is not one-dimensional. Palestinians have the right to resist in all forms, from nonviolent protests and BDS campaigns to armed struggle against their oppressors /occupiers. This resistance is essential to the ongoing fight for self-determination, and it must be supported through our collective efforts. By pooling our resources, knowledge, and networks, we can amplify our collective voice and apply strategic pressure on governments, corporations, and international institutions to uphold Palestinian rights and challenge the systems of occupation, apartheid, and colonialism.
Our work with local movements is empowered through grassroots organizing and education, while national and international efforts focus on advocating for policy change and holding governments accountable for their complicity in the occupation.
In this interconnected struggle, we seek to ensure that the Palestinian cause is integrated into the broader fight for justice, equality, and anti-colonialism, recognizing that the oppression of Palestinians is part of a wider system of global injustices. Through solidarity, mutual support, and collective action, we strive to create a more just world for all peoples.
The Future
Protecting Palestinian Children and the Generations to Come
Our commitment to justice extends to the future of Palestine—especially to its children, who are the heart of the resistance and the key to a better tomorrow. Palestinian children face daily violence, displacement, and the destruction of their homes, schools, and communities. We are deeply concerned with the long-term impact of this trauma on Palestinian youth, who are denied their basic rights to education, safety, and a dignified future. We stand firm in our belief that true justice cannot be achieved without securing the rights and well-being of Palestinian children.
We advocate for the immediate end of Israeli/Zionist policies that harm Palestinian children, including arbitrary detention, military occupation, and systematic violence. The future of Palestine is also at stake in the lives of its children, who deserve to grow up in a liberated Palestine. We are committed to supporting efforts to protect Palestinian youth and ensure they inherit a future of peace and dignity.
We also support the right of Palestinian children and future generations to return to the land of their ancestors, ensuring that they are able to grow up in their homeland, free from the occupation and violence that have plagued their families for decades. Through education, activism, and international advocacy, we are committed to ensuring that the next generation of Palestinians inherit a world that respects their human rights, honors their heritage, and affirms their right to return to the land of their ancestors.
