Israeli-Palestinian Joint Memorial Day Ceremony

Online Streaming

The lives of everyone connected to Israel and Palestine will never be the same after October 7, 2023. With tens of thousands of lives lost, families torn apart, and children traumatized, now more than ever, we need to continue to show up for one another to mourn, remember, and call for an end to the violence and demand a political solution that brings freedom, justice, and safety for all. Israelis and Palestinians need US  - the international community - to join together around our shared grief to heal and build hope that another way is not only possible but imperative. This year will be the 19th annual joint Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Day ceremony organized by Combatants for Peace and the Parents Circle-Families Forum.

The Joint Memorial Ceremony is the largest Israeli-Palestinian peace event in history. Last year 15,000 people attended the event in person, and 300,000 people participated online. The ceremony has become a focal point for the entire peace community. Nearly every peace-building NGO in the region participates in some way, and MLK Saratoga is proud to be a sponsor of the ceremony this year. It has a profound impact on everyone involved in or witnessing the event.  Please join us.
