PACBI

EBABZ stands in total solidarity with the people of Palestine in their struggle against Israeli occupation and genocide. We are committing to the Palestinian Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI).

Thus, we commit to:

  • boycott any cultural product or event funded, commissioned, &/or sponsored by an official Israeli body

  • not collaborate with or take money from Israeli institutions

  • refuse "normalization" efforts seeking to justify Israel's violence or present a false symmetry between oppressed & oppressor

  • advocate for others to similarly divest from Israel, end support for the oppression of Palestinians, & pressure Israel to comply with international law

PACBI was launched in Ramallah in 2004 and is part of the wider Boycott, Divest, and Sanction movement. PACBI guidelines are simple: they ask institutions to refuse support from the state of Israel and reject projects that normalize the occupation of Palestine and dispossession of Palestinians.
