Solidarity
Is Action
An international conference on liberation tech, exposing complicity, and resistance in policy, law and the media.
The Time Is Now
We gather not merely to discuss the mechanics of oppression, but to construct the architecture of our collective liberation through tech.
Tech for Palestine brings together organizers, lawyers, journalists, policy workers, business professionals and engineers from across Europe and beyond — for workshops, networking sessions, and panels with leading names from the movement.
