In light of recent remarks by President Trump suggesting U.S. ownership of Gaza and calling for the permanent relocation of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, we –the Australian trade union global justice organisation– see these proposals with utmost concern as they contradict international law and infringe upon the fundamental human rights of the Palestinian people.

Since October 2023, Union Aid Abroad – APHEDA has played a key role providing avenues for the Australian community to be informed on the situation in Gaza, demonstrate solidarity with the people of Gaza and offer meaningful financial support to aid efforts on the ground.
