Reverberating across numerous time zones and corners of the world, 24hrs/Palestine is a plurilingual programme that brings together a chorus of voices united in their solidarity with the Palestinian people. Over the course of 24 hours, we will gather in physical spaces and on the airwaves with the aim of hearing from people all over the world about the necessities and possibilities of anti-colonial solidarity from local perspectives.

The broadcast begins on Sunday 18 February in Palestine, at 12:00 midday Palestine time, and will journey listeners all over the globe, from Santiago to Algiers, Nouméa to Helsinki, Casablanca to Kampala, Beirut to Montreal, Bandung to Paris, Cairo to Tehran, Bethlehem, Ramallah, Cape Town to London, Tunisia, Italy and India, culminating at 12:00 midday on Monday 19 February in Palestine. Bringing together a network of independent radio stations, the transmissions will be composed of poetry, music, discussion and readings and will air simultaneously on Radio Alhara, Radio Flouka and others.

Palestine is a land that urges and inspires us to act, to dream, to think and to participate in an internationalism that questions our interconnectedness and co-responsibility. The situation in Gaza is a parameter for justice everywhere. 24hrs/Palestine is a modest attempt to cultivate new and lasting collaborations and connections, to encourage an active listening to one another and a provocation to continue communing and reworlding.
