Description:

Around the world, communities facing repression, dispossession, and state violence have found common cause in one another’s struggles. Colombia and Palestine: The Solidarity Between Two Peoples That Resist brings together organizers, researchers, and human rights defenders to explore the deep-rooted connections between Colombian and Palestinian movements for justice.

This program highlights how both peoples—across continents and histories—have resisted militarization, colonialism, and social inequality, often learning from one another’s experiences. Through shared stories of resilience, grassroots mobilization, and international solidarity, the conversation aims to illuminate how transnational alliances strengthen the pursuit of liberation.

Featuring speakers:

  • Liliana del Pilar Castillo
  • Astrid Torres Ramírez
  • Daniela Rodríguez Novoa

Together, they will discuss the historical and contemporary links between Colombian and Palestinian activism, the role of social movements in confronting state and paramilitary violence, and the importance of global solidarity networks in moments of escalating crisis.
