2025-08-21 , Tent 9: Anti-Imperialist Networking TENT 1 / Zelt 9: Anti-Imperialistische Vernetzung ZELT 1

"Why we care - A conversational approach" creates an opportunity to exchange definitions and conceptions of solidarity from our perspective, existing as marginalized bodies. By offering space for eye-level, one-to-one conversations, we can engage with global movements from different parts of the world, particularly from the Global South, that demonstrate solidarity toward one another. Through these dialogues, we seek to explore and embody the principle that “no one is free until we are all free”, deepening our understanding of interconnected struggles and collective liberation.

As Palestine Solidarity group we see ourselves as comrades in the fight for Palestinian liberation and solidarity as being embedded in a wider anti-imperial and anti-colonial understanding of the world. Acknowledging that people within the German climate justice movement have been socialized in a country where zionist perspective dominate, we aim to critically engage with the speechlessness of many in the German left concerning this topic and invited external groups to share their knowledge about the Palestinian struggle and beyond.
