Strategies For The Return: Landmark Tenth Annual International Al-Awda Convention

Together with our families in the homeland, we are planning our return to a Free
Palestine!

Help design and energize the work for the coming year along with our expanding network of grassroots, student, and solidarity activists.

JOIN US at one of the largest annual gathering of Palestinians and their supporters to address critical issues that our cause is facing.

Grassroots planning discussions and activist workshops will include: Boycotts and Divestment For The Return; Palestinian Children's Rights Campaign; Student Summit with Community; and Educating Congress!

Plus come take part in a debate on the proposed Palestine National Council Direct Election Campaign.

We have a list of exciting speakers that include Palestinian photojournalist Nayef Hashlamoun from Al-Watan Center in Al-Khalil (Hebron), Palestine; Dr. As'ad Daoud Hess-Linckost from the University of the District of Columbia who will discuss the contamination of Gaza and West Bank water and how it is severely affecting the Palestinian population in those areas; and Dr. Jess Ghannam who will discuss the Popular Uprisings in the Arab World and their impact on Palestine and Refugees.

Plus . . .
Cultural presentations, books and solidarity items, network with friends and fellow activists & lunch presentations & evening banquet with live music!
