Palestinian Civil Society calls for boycott, divestment, and sanctions
Palestine
More than 170 Palestinian civil society organizations call for boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) against Israel until it complies with international law, taking inspiration from the South African anti-apartheid movement. The BDS movement demands that Israel ends its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands and dismantles the wall, recognizes the fundamental rights of Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality, and upholds the right of return for Palestinian refugees.
