Women on the Line

Making liberatory spaces in Palestine after prison and under occupation


Listen Later

This week, we hear from Mais, a longtime women's rights organiser from Nablus in the occupied West Bank. After 7 October, the Israeli occupation designated the women's union -where she had worked for two decades- as a terrorist organisation, and Mais was subsequently imprisoned at Al Damon by occupation forces.Now released, she volunteers with a women's centre supporting formerly incarcerated women and works with displaced women from Gaza, facilitating workshops to upskill women in the traditional style of embroidery.We are honoured to share Mais' testimony and thank her for taking the risk in sharing her story. Thanks to Malak for the translation and to Tutu for conducting the interview.** If you would like to support the work of the women's centre in Nablus, or access translation work from Malak please email [email protected] **
