Bear Witness. Keep watch. Build peace.

Every day, persecution and human rights abuses destroy people’s lives and fuel conflict in the Holy Land.

Your support can help prevent these injustices.

The Ecumenical Accompaniment Program in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI) brings together volunteers from around the world to spend three months living alongside communities under military occupation in Palestine and Israel. The volunteers, called Ecumenical Accompaniers (EAs), provide a protective presence for families at risk of harassment; monitor human rights abuses; and, on return to their home countries, use their firsthand experience to advocate for international pressure on decision makers to comply with humanitarian law and to find long-term solutions to the conflict.
