Al-Awda, The Palestine Right to Return Coalition, is the largest network of grassroots activists dedicated to Palestinian human rights. It is a broad-based, non-partisan, global, democratic association of grassroots activists and organizational representatives. Al-Awda’s objective is to educate the international community to fulfill its legal and moral obligations vis-à-vis the Palestinian people. Al-Awda develops, coordinates, supports and guides, as needed, global and local grassroots initiatives for action related to Palestinian rights. Its advocacy includes the right of Palestinians to return to their homeland, and to full restitution of all their confiscated and destroyed property in accordance with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, international law and implementation of United Nations Resolutions which uphold these rights. A major portion of their activities are planned by autonomous local committees similar to this Al-Awda Ohio committee. Al-Awda works to mobilize the local communities and organizations, plan local events including, for example, teach-ins and protests, watch and inform the media, as well as organize advocacy meetings.
