Letters For Palestine
Ongoing Issues to be covered
We have identified a number of Ongoing Issues which have continued in the Occupied Palestinian Territories for many years. These can be covered in an email to a politician.
It is hoped that you will get involved in writing one email a month or two months on one of the Ongoing Issues and if one of the Urgent/Current Issues concerns you, please feel free to write to a politician in your country about this as well.
