Health for Palestine: Hope & Struggle in the West Bank

Come join us (in person or by zoom) on Sunday, April 27, 2025 from 7:00-8:30pm in Brookline to hear from Nidal Al Azraq, executive director of 1for3.org, about events on the ground in the West Bank, including the unprecedented levels of violence and mass displacement there. Recently back from a trip to Palestine, he will report on the unfolding conditions and be joined by Dr. Karameh Hawash Kuemmerle, co-founder of Doctors Against Genocide, to talk about 1for3’s “Health for Palestine” (or “H4P”) campaign. Designed to help communities withstand the impacts and challenges of this moment, the Health for Palestine /H4P campaign seeks to provide a holistic, community-based model of healthcare through the training of new healthcare workers who have themselves been displaced.

Funds raised at the event will support 1for3’s Health for Palestine/H4P campaign.

This event is presented by two Boston Workers Circle social justice committees: the Jewish Muslim Solidarity Committee and the Palestine Solidarity Subcommittee of the IPC.
