Let's make tech a driving force for Palestinian freedom and liberation
Technology should disrupt the status quo — not serve it.
For decades, the narrative about Palestine has been shaped by selective historical accounts and an occupying force that restricts access to the reality on the ground.
The community at Tech for Palestine is shifting the conversation towards equality and justice, by cultivating a garden of projects and services that shut down genocidal speech, enable people to speak up for Palestinian freedom, scale Palestinian activism with technology, and cultivate fierce advocates for Palestine within the Tech community.
Vision
A free Palestine, a tech industry that actively participates in liberation, and a world where all people enjoy equal dignity, justice, and human rights.
Mission
T4P exists to accelerate the liberation of Palestine, transform the tech industry, and contribute to movements for justice everywhere by:
- building, educating, and mobilizing a community of tech users, workers, executives, founders, and investors
- using our tech skills to scale the movement for Palestine
- pushing the tech industry towards liberatory and ethical practices, policies, technologies, and culture
- developing new ethical technology and tools
How we work
- We connect project leaders to communities of volunteers
- We mentor, provide office hours, and support start-up projects aimed at ending apartheid, minimizing media bias, encouraging boycotts, and more
- We create a community of pro-Palestinian techies to get involved in causes they believe in and help Palestinians get hired
