Open to all Unifor members.
All over the world, the call to end violence on the Palestinian people is becoming louder and louder. Unifor has joined with human rights organizations and people who have demonstrated in cities around the world in recent days calling for an immediate end to the military actions in Gaza.
From our local unions across Canada, what can Unifor members and activists do to build solidarity with Palestinians during this time?
This webinar will feature guest speakers directly engaged in the fight for Palestinian human rights, who are actively building solidarity with Palestinians. We invite Unifor members to join in this important, timely conversation about concrete ways to build and express solidarity.

- Farah El-Hajj (moderator)
- Michael Lynk, associate professor of law at the University of Western Ontario.
- Majd Samaro, International Transport Workers’ Federation projects coordinator in Palestine
- Rabbi David Mivasair, member of Independent Jewish Voices in Canada and the rabbinic council of Jewish Voices for Peace in the US
