We work in solidarity and friendship with Jordan Valley Solidarity - a Palestinian led network of grassroots community groups from all over the Jordan Valley and their international supporters. We support their aims to protect Palestinian existence and the unique environment of the Jordan Valley through: organising delegations and a long term presence in the valley; disseminating information; supporting twinning projects; challenging the occupation; and supporting the Palestinian call for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions.
