Fighting the divest-from-Israel campaign is a
challenge. We recognize that there is a lot to know and study just to keep
current which is time consuming. We also know that having an expert in this
matter on-site can be helpful in your efforts, and we are here to help you. A
Divestment Watch representative can visit your community, campus or
municipality to help you. We can speak to your community organization, on
campus and present the case against divestment to your city administrators and
answer questions. |
