INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS VOLUNTEERS NEEDED IN PALESTINE
The International Women¹s Peace Service in Palestine is a team of international female human-rights volunteers who provide accompaniment to Palestinian civilians (including farmers during the annual olive harvest), document and non-violently intervene in human-rights abuses and support acts of non-violent resistance to end the Israeli military occupation and construction of the barrier throughout the West Bank.
IWPS is currently inviting applications from women who would like to join our team of long-term volunteers.
Successful applicants will be invited to a one week training program in June 2010 and will serve a minimum of one three-month term in Palestine, and support our work outside of Palestine.
Applicants should be able to commit to further terms in Palestine of one to three months for a three year period.
Short-term volunteers are also welcome to apply for minimum volunteer periods of three weeks.
