In 2005, more than 170 Palestinian civil society organizations called for “international civil society organizations and people of conscience all over the world to impose broad boycotts and implement divestment initiatives against Israel similar to those applied to South Africa in the apartheid era … for the sake of justice and genuine peace.”

Since then, scores of organizations worldwide have answered their call.
