2. About the workshop
Dear partners of Popular Struggle in Palestine,
Popular Struggle has gone through many successful phases within the
last 10 years. Yet, our struggle is not over!
One of the pillars of the Palestinian nonviolent resistance has been the
joint struggle and cooperation with international and Israeli activists and
partners. International solidarity and cooperation has been a meaningful
support for nonviolent resistance in Palestine during all these years and
phases. We thank you for your support and your solidarity!
We think that it is time to celebrate our cooperation, to evaluate the last
more than 10 years of joint struggle, international solidarity, and
cooperation, and to increase its impact and added value for civil
resistance in Palestine.
Therefore, we would like to gather together with all our international
partners for a workshop around the question:
How can international cooperation and joint struggle
best empower Palestinian Popular Struggle?
Objectives of the workshop
The overall objective of this workshop is to strengthen international
cooperation and joint struggle to contribute to more e.ective Palestinian
Popular Struggle.
Accordingly, the expected outcomes of the workshop are:
 A shared strategy for international cooperation for popular struggle
is ready to be implemented.
 A framework of cooperation and coordination between popular

In order to reach the above outcomes, the workshop's goals are:
 To analyze the current state of international cooperation with
