International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People 29 November


                                              

Virtual Exibit, 1 December 2020

The writing is on the wall : Annexation Past and Present


This year, the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People will be observed on 1 December with special meetings.


In the UN headquarters in New York, the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People, a body of the UN General Assembly promoting the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination and independence, will convene high-level officials of Member States, the Secretary-General, intergovernmental organizations and representatives of civil society who are expected to make statements on the question of Palestine and attend the official launch of a virtual exhibit focusing on the Wall built in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, which has been ruled to be illegal by the International Court of Justice in its Advisory Opinion of 9 July 2004.

The exhibit explores this through the words of various advocates and public personalities,


and through images from artists and human rights activists who have used the wall as a canvas to express their solidarity with the Palestinian people.

 

  These events will be broadcast live via the UN Web TV and the exhibit will be available on the United Nations’ website.

 

Activities will also be organized on the occasion by governmental bodies and CSOs in cooperation with United Nations information centres around the world.

 

The UN General Assembly will convene this year for its annual debate on the question of Palestine on 2 December, where it is expected to adopt with a large majority a resolution outlining the parameters for a just solution to this outstanding question.

  1. “The 10 articles and 38 clauses have to cease wars across the globe and make peace. If you think these articles cannot cease wars, you must have an alternative. If not, it has to be implemented right away.” HWPL Chairman Lee✌
