Mission Statement

The Alliance for Water Justice in Palestine raises awareness about Israel’s use of water as a weapon against the people of Palestine. Our four core principles are:

• Water is a human right

• Water should not be used as an instrument of oppression

• Water should be equally distributed

• Water should not be privatized

We came together in 2013 in response to the “Innovative Water Partnership” between government and business leaders in Israel and Massachusetts. We  succeeded in ending that partnership after a three-year campaign. We support communities in their fight for water justice in the US and condemn the promotion of Israeli water companies domestically and internationally while their technologies are used to oppress Palestinian people. We work in solidarity with the global Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement for freedom, justice, and equality for all people in Israel-Palestine and oppose efforts to delegitimate the struggle for Palestinian rights.
