If you're aged 18 or over, reasonably fit, can afford a plane ticket and some spending money, and can spare two weeks or more of your time in Palestine, we'd like to hear from you. The ISM London training session provides pre-travel information and practical advice to anyone thinking about going on a solidarity visit to Palestine -- with no obligation. ISM London's experienced volunteers can help answer your questions about the movement and the current situation on the ground in Palestine.

Training and accommodation in Palestine are provided for a nominal fee (less than £3 per day). The ISM Palestine training is required to join the group (training in the UK does not replace the compulsory session in Palestine). For more information on preparation, travel and arrival in Palestine, please see the ISM Palestine website.
