We Must Take Action for Palestine

Dear Journ Family,

We cannot continue to watch the horror in Palestine without taking action.

While there is now a ceasefire, the terrifying experience of living through airstrikes continues on. Families now work to rebuild, access medicine, clean drinking water and find shelter, after the worst violence in years.

We will always stand against injustice and promise to be an active part of our global community. 

If you are looking for educational resources, or to take action in solidarity with the people of Palestine, we have compiled the following list:
