77 Years of Ongoing Nakba

Event hosted by Palestine-Global and Chile-Palestine Mental Health Networks

May 2025 marks 77 years of the ongoing Nakba—a catastrophe that began long before 1948 and continues relentlessly today. Our people in Gaza endure starvation and bombardment, a genocide livestreamed to a world silent in complicity. Meanwhile, our loved ones in the West Bank and East Jerusalem face daily oppression and unlawful annexation, crimes met consistently by international silence.

Yet, despite this profound injustice, we refuse passivity. United, we uplift our collective struggle and remain steadfast in demanding justice, dignity, and freedom for every Palestinian.

Join us in solidarity to ensure these voices are heard loud and clear.

Mark your calendars and join us as we collectively break the silence, condemn genocide, and demand justice.
