Research in Palestine – 2013

Posted on January 10, 2013 | 2 Comments

The Corporate Occupation research team returned from Palestine in late February 2013. We gathered a large amount of new information which we will be disseminating over the coming months. This information will initially be in the form of photos, videos, articles and short reports. Later on we will compile some of it into longer reports and factsheets.

You can also follow us on Twitter at @CorpOccupation

Our research is intended to serve as a resource for the international movement for Boycott Divestment and Sanctions against Israeli apartheid, colonisation and occupation. Please contact us if you can think of any info that might be useful to your campaign. We are happy to come and speak to campaigners in workshops or public meetings too.
