What is BDS?
BDS, or boycott, divestment and sanctions, is a strategy that allows people of conscience around the world to play an effective role in the Palestinian struggle for justice.
For many decades, calls for boycott have been part of the Palestinian struggle for liberation.
In July 2005, Palestinian civil society organizations issued a call for a campaign of boycotts, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against Israel until it complies with international law and Palestinian rights. A truly global movement against Israeli Apartheid is rapidly emerging in response to this call.
The Canadian BDS Coalition works to confront the complicity of Canadian and multinational corporations and governments in the ongoing Israeli occupation, apartheid and colonialism inflicted upon the Palestinian people. The Coalition is pleased that in 2024, it is now has members from other countries as we work together in our own context and international.
The Canadian BDS Coalition & International BDS Allies is comprised of groups in Canada and elsewhere that support the global Boycott Israel movement targeting Israel’s system of settler-colonialism, occupation, and apartheid towards the Palestinian people.
