About Us
The Pan-African Palestine Solidarity Network (PAPSN) is a pan-African network of civil society organizations, activists and groups in solidarity with the liberation struggle of the Palestinian people.
The network was formed in June 2021 after discussions among different Palestinian solidarity organizations on the African continent.
Presently, the network includes members from some 20 countries across the continent.
We uphold the African Charter of Peoples and Human Rights, which in its preamble commits us “to eliminate colonialism, neo-colonialism, apartheid, zionism”.

Apartheid and Israel’s ideology, Zionism, stand in stark contradiction to our values and principles as enshrined in the African Charter for Peoples and Human Rights and have no place in our union. - Collective op-ed: “We will not let France support the return of apartheid in Africa”
