Even in times of war, we must not overlook the humanity of both Palestinians and Israelis. We must not downplay or ignore injustices against any group or ignore the suffering of others.

The Pro-Human Campaign aims to counter two disturbing trends: the dehumanization of Israelis and Jews, and the dehumanization of Gazans, Palestinians, and Muslims around the world. While nearly everyone seems to identify as either pro‑Israeli or pro-Palestinian, showing a lack of empathy to the humans on the other side, we call to amplify the pro-human voice!

Who are we, and what are our objectives?

The Pro-Human Campaign is a global network of organizations and activists, initiated by Amnesty International Israel when the conflict erupted on October 7. It is a home to every person, group, or organization who share the pro-human spirit and oppose the de-humanization of Israelis and Palestinians and Muslims and Jews around the world. At this point, the coalition includes the following organizations: Rabbis for Human Rights, the Parents Circle Families Forum, Mehazkim, Peace NGO Forum, PsychoActive, Attac Germany and Standing Together.

In response to the polarized discourse (pro-Palestinian vs. pro-Israeli), our goal is to promote a strong pro-human perspective in Israel and globally, encouraging a shift from one-sided views to being pro‑human. We aim to establish a movement with a worldview that recognizes humanity on both sides; a movement committed to engaging with and transforming public discourse.

Amid the atrocities committed by both sides following October 7, feminist organizations’ response to gender-based violence by Hamas was controversial. At stake were the need to express solidarity and empathy toward victims, and, on the other hand, the difficulty to be conclusive before a thorough and independent investigation has been conducted
