This microsite features solidarity actions, statements, petitions, opinion pieces, and stories on the ground, from the region and globally on Palestine. It seeks to provide a vital lens to critically analyze the crisis of humanity that is distorted or buried by mainstream narratives. More importantly, this space is also to amplify and advance the demands for #CeasefireNow, #EndOccupation, and #FreePalestine, with the aim of contributing to the strengthening of collective actions for peace, justice, and self-determination for Palestine, across the Asia region and beyond.
