Campaigns
Our current campaings are:
DO SOMETHING FOR GAZA!!!We must do something to stop this now! Grassroots movements have worked before and CAN WORK AGAIN. The demonstrations, vigils and actions taking place now must be the start of an invigorated and relentless campaign that lasts past the shock and anger. Every action, however small, is an important contribution. Vital to this movement is coordination; both organising effective action locally and building nationally. Below is a list of things that YOU can do (please contact us with more ideas, if you can): 1. Send this information and ideas for actions to all your contacts. 2. Attend the demonstrations happening around you. For a list of demonstrations/vigils/stunts/actions please visit: http://www.actionpalestine.org/home/demonstrations/ If there is no demonstration/actions happening near you, coordinate with others people/groups to organise one (please, get in touch if you want any advice on this). Send us the information so we can advertise it on the website and our mailing lists. 3. Bring your ideas to the movement. Attend your local palestine group’s organising meeting, and if there is none, organise a meeting for every one who is interested to plan a campaign. This is a has to be a grassroots movement, the more people involved the bigger the potential. 4. Watch the media and contact them to ask them to improve their coverage (Please see below, for a list of media contacts, and tips on what to say) 5. Contact your MP and ask pressingly for urgent action, don’t take any diplomatic answers, this is a life or death matter and they need to know you care!! (Please see below, for ideas and contacts) 6. Call and email your government representatives (Please see below, for contact information for governments officials and sample emails) 7. Donate to Interpal, (they are a charity that do a lot of important work in Gaza) http://www.interpal.org/donate/donate.html |
