From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who attended, listened, and took part in our “Voices From the Nakba” series. Your presence turned each event, from much-needed dialogue between survivors to Palestinian poetry, music, and embroidery workshops, into a shared act of remembrance, dignity, and hope for a brighter future.
We are proud to share with you full-length recordings from our event series, held from the 11th to the 17th of May.
Although Nakba week is over, we are reminded that the Nakba itself is not.
These crucial Nakba events highlight the importance of educating the British public about Palestinian history while upholding the culture and dignity that all Palestinians deserve.
Thanks to your support, ticket sales raised crucial funds for projects that directly strengthen education and opportunities for young Palestinians.
