Dear Colleagues,
We are a group of healthcare workers in Amiskwacîwâskahikan (Edmonton) who signed Health workers Alliance for Palestine’s open letter against the destruction of the healthcare system in Gaza.
We are organizing an event to honour our colleagues in Gaza in support of the National Day of Action for Healthcare Workers in Solidarity with Palestine on November 30 2023.
Join us at the Canadian Druze Centre (14304 134 Ave NW) at 6:00 pm on Thursday November 30th wearing scrubs, stethoscopes, and white coats. You can wear a mask as well if you wish.
We will also have a winter clothing drive for Tawaw. Please bring any items you would like to donate.
We will be raising the names of our colleagues and calling for our four collective demands:
- Immediate ceasefire
- Stop targeting hospitals and health workers
- End the siege on Gaza
- End to occupation and the apartheid system
As well as the right to speak loudly and freely in support of Palestine and these demands.
The event is open to healthcare workers and students in healthcare fields.
We look forward to seeing you there.
In Solidarity,
Edmonton HAP team
Health workers Alliance for Palestine (H.A.P.)
