Food is not just sustenance; it’s a powerful tool for peace and justice. In Palestine, food insecurity is weaponized, perpetuating oppression and colonization. Restrictions on access to land, water, and resources exacerbate hunger and poverty, undermining the livelihoods of Palestinian farmers (OHCHR,2024). This crisis highlights the deep connections between food systems and broader social justice issues

The urgency of the genocide in Palestine has been getting worse the recent massacre in Rafah, where Israeli military strikes killed at least 45 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and left dozens more with severe injuries.
