Challenge · Crimes & complicity

Ending impunity for complicity.

Israel’s crimes against Palestinians rely on international support: European governments, corporations, financial and public institutions. We expose, disrupt and legally challenge these systems of complicity.

Movement lawyers

The struggle is fought on the ground

As movement lawyers, we recognise that the struggle for a free Palestine is first and foremost fought by Palestinians themselves. Our role is to strengthen it: developing legal tools that empower advocacy, disrupt state and corporate complicity, and set precedents that force accountability.

We are an independent legal organisation, deeply connected to the Palestine solidarity movement. Our legal strategies are informed by the political realities of the struggle and contribute directly to its goals.

Our focus

Third-state obligations

Holding European governments legally accountable for their military, financial and diplomatic support of Israel’s violations.

Corporate accountability

Investigating companies that profit from or facilitate human rights abuses.

Financial enablers

Examining banks and investors that fund Israeli war crimes, while Palestinian organisations, aid and civil society are de-risked and defunded.

Strategic litigation

  • Disrupt state complicity: challenge European governments’ support for Israel’s violations.
  • Expose corporate wrongdoing: hold businesses accountable for profiting from occupation and apartheid.
  • Target financial enablers: litigate against banks and institutions that facilitate Israeli war crimes.

Legal capacity for the movement

  • Legal resources and strategic guidance for grassroots campaigns.
  • Support for civil society and lawyers with case-building and documentation.
  • Engagement with international legal bodies to advance accountability.
