Amid the catastrophic famine and the systematic genocide unfolding in the Gaza Strip due to the ongoing blockade, starvation, and direct targeting of civilians, the Palestinian Human Rights Foundation (Shahed) has launched a legal media advocacy campaign titled “A Word for Gaza”.

Shahed has called for participation in the campaign by recording a short video — no longer than 60 seconds — that includes:

  • A clear legal stance based on international law regarding the crimes committed against Palestinian civilians. Presenting the facts.
  • A call for the international community to take immediate action in accordance with its obligations under international humanitarian law and human rights law.

The videos will be published as part of a global digital campaign targeting: the Human Rights Council, the International Criminal Court, and the signatories of the Genocide Convention.
