HELP BRING ABOUT LASTING CHANGE
Our partners ask us to speak up for the dignity and rights of those living on the margins of their communities. With your help, we can bring the voices of Christians in the Middle East to the attention of the UK public. Let’s work together to make a difference with targeted actions that raise awareness and stir consciences.

STOP TRADE WITH SETTLEMENTS CAMPAIGN
Embrace is part of an alliance of more than 80 civil society organisations which launched a new campaign “Stop Trade with Settlements,” demanding countries ban all trade with illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt), including by major multinational companies and financial institutions sustaining the settlement enterprise.
OLIVE TREE PROJECT - SPONSOR AN OLIVE TREE TO PROTECT PALESTINIAN LAND
In the occupied West Bank, land is being seized from Palestinian farmers at an unprecedented rate – confiscated for ‘security’ reasons by the Israeli military or claimed for illegal Israeli settlements. Planting new olive trees is a direct and peaceful way to stand with Palestinians, helping them defend their heritage, preserve the land they’ve worked for generations and maintain an important source of income.
Show your solidarity. Sponsor an olive tree today for just £20
