Our recent experiences in promoting a public address by two Israeli students about their firsthand account of fighting in the 2014 Gaza War under the IDF’s rules of engagement, was our first brush with the BDS movement in New Zealand.

For many of us in New Zealand the BDS movement is something that we read about in lands far away. It was therefore intriguing to encounter it here on these shores.

We invite you to hear about the story behind the story of our efforts to promote the public address in Christchurch and Wellington and find out more about the background to this movement which seeks to isolate Israel and to pressure it into conceding even more to the Palestinian cause.
