COMMUNITY ARTS AND RESILIENCE DELEGATION

AUGUST 2019

The Community Arts and Resilience Delegation explored the creative ways Palestinian communities employ arts and culture as a means of resilience and resistance.

Follow the delegation to read delegate reflections from the grounds, reports from meetings, and experiences with Palestinians and Israelis.

Exclusive content will also be available on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook under the hashtag #eyewitness69.

This delegation is Eyewitness Palestine's 69th, successfully exposing nearly 1,400 people to the daily realities facing Palestinians in their quest for justice.

We believe in the power of eyewitness experience and transformation. Given the opportunity to speak directly with Palestinians and Israelis, delegates return to the United States better informed, more energized, and with a deeper understanding of the possibilities for true justice in the Middle East.
