The Palestinian Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) National Committee (BNC), the largest coalition in Palestinian society at home and in exile and the leader of the global BDS movement, calls for widespread popular pressure to cancel the participation of the Palestinian government representative in the so-called "Southern Neighbors" meeting in Brussels. This normalizing meeting, which brings together representatives of the European Union, the Israeli Foreign Minister, and several representatives of Arab regimes, aims to legitimize the continuation of the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which has led to a full partnership in the genocide and ethnic cleansing of our Palestinian people.

Palestinians salute Art Workers for Palestine Scotland’s tireless and creative organising.

We owe it to every single Palestinian, especially our people in Gaza, to reaffirm our unbreakable commitment to march on until Israel’s regime of oppression is dismantled.

Palestinian BDS National Committee calls for global pressure on states to ensure war criminals are not allowed into their territory and/or to prosecute them for their crimes. The BNC acknowledges the efforts by private businesses in ensuring war criminals are not welcome on their premises.

The International Sociological Association (ISA) suspended the Israeli Sociological Society (ISS) over its failure to condemn Israel’s ongoing genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in the illegally occupied Gaza Strip. It is to note that the ISS's complicity goes well beyond failure to condemn Israel’s most recent heinous atrocity crimes.

Belgian organisations and movements take legal action against the Belgian Flemish government for failing to block the transfer of illegal military goods to Israel through its ports. Stop the container and ensure accountability!

The era of impunity for Israel and corporations must end now.

The Jordan Under-19 National Team withdrew from the FIBA U19 Basketball World Cup 2025 as a principled stand against Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza and its 77-year regime of apartheid imposed on the Palestinian people.

PACBI welcomes the decision by the International Sociological Association (ISA) to suspend the Israeli Sociological Society (ISS) over its failure to condemn Israel’s ongoing genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in the illegally occupied Gaza Strip. We salute the scholars (including Global Sociologists for Palestine within ISA), activists, and civil society groups whose collective pressure and support for the PACBI demands made the ISA executive committee take this necessary yet extremely late measure of accountability, over 20 months into Israel’s genocide. However, suspending the ISS is insufficient for ensuring that ISA’s Forum in Morocco does not harm the struggle for Palestinian rights, nor the Moroccan and broader Arab struggle against normalization. Giving an unconditional platform to de facto representatives of complicit Israeli universities that have for decades been a pillar in Israel’s regime of settler-colonialism, apartheid, and military occupation further entrenches normalization, as defined by the Palestinian-led BDS movement. Israeli universities and institutions are today actively supporting the genocide, not just failing to condemn it or staying silent.

GS4P support the call to boycott of the 5th ISA Forum in Rabat (July 6–11, 2025) due to participation by representatives of Israeli institutions complicit in occupation, apartheid, and genocide and ties to the complicit Israeli Sociological Association.
