Land Day 2025!

On this Land Day, Anera recognizes the importance of land and the ownership of land to Palestinian heritage. We remember the beauty of the Gaza strip from just a few years ago, before the war left the area completely devastated.

As many Palestinians are dealing with forced displacement, we celebrate the traditions and connection to the land that form this beautiful culture.

Anera stands against the violence against Palestinian land and people, and advocates for the removal of humanitarian aid blockages. As the war persists, we hope for a better and more humane future for Palestine.
