How to Support Palestine: Information on Marches, Cultural Resources and More
We stand with Palestinian people as they fight for basic human rights and fundamental freedoms. We urge you to donate and help how you can.
TW: war, colonisation, oppression.
We stand in solidarity with all colonised people around the world who’ve had their rights stripped away. The loss of innocent lives is tragic and we want to show empathy for those affected by conflict and war.
We also take a stance on genocide. The oppression of Palestinian people goes against the values of our organisation. At Trippin, we promote conscious travel and we believe the broader context in which today’s crisis is unfolding in Gaza must be acknowledged.
Water, fuel and food supplies are reportedly running dangerously low in the Gaza Strip, and doctors have called for aid. We’ve highlighted how you can take action and where you can donate. This list also includes links to fundraisers from the global creative community, in addition to cultural resources and reading material that contextualises the history leading up to today’s crisis.
Marches are taking place this week around the world. Below, we’ve shared details of upcoming protests and we hope you'll join us in showing solidarity with the Palestinian people of Gaza.
We’ll continue to update this list as we learn more. If you have any resources or information you’d like to share, please email them to hello@trippin.world.
