Amos Trust is a small, creative human rights organisation, committed to challenging injustice, building hope and creating positive change.
“Our vision is of Israelis and Palestinians living in peace together, each having their own national identity and each respecting the other. It is not based upon divisions of land but on rights. This is the vision with which we have to challenge the Trump plan with. For even though it may sound daft it is actually far more achievable.” Chris Rose writes about President Trump’s recent Peace Plan.
A new, free downloadable collection of poetry and creative writing with an emphasis on Climate Justice, ‘Little Spaces of Hope: More Thoughts and Reflections from Amos Trust’ is available now. With contributions from Gilberto Aguirre, Sam Donaldson, Zena Kazeme, Ivan V. Lalic, Robin Message, Micky Scottbey Jones, Chris Rose and Martin Wroe.
Discover Palestine through Holy Land Trust’s longest-running and most successful encounter experience. The programme participants are invited to discover Palestine through the daily life of its people. This month-long trip is perfect for gap-year students and those wishing to immerse themselves in Palestinian history and culture. Full details.
Join us for an unforgettable trip to Durban, South Africa. Visit our partner Umthombo’s vital work with children and young people living on Durban’s streets. Spend time with the team and the young people they work with, understand why children come on to the streets and how Umthombo walks with them on the long road to finding a new future.
Selected books, essays, films and podcasts from Audre Lorde to Arundhati Roy; we’ve found that these have provided unique and intersectional perspectives which challenge us and teach us something new. Hand-picked by the Amos team — we hope you’ll enjoy them too. Full details.
For the next 18 months, our Palestine campaign will be ‘Ahlan Gaza’. It will follow the simple stories of people living in Gaza, people trying to live with dignity as their options close in on them each year. How do you encourage children to be hopeful for their future when unemployment is at 59%? How do you feed your family when 70% of the population is on food aid? How do you run a business on 5 hours electricity a day?
We work alongside grass-roots partners in Palestine, South Africa, Nicaragua, Burundi, India and Tanzania.
Reaching children on the streets, addressing their trauma, working with them and their families to reintegrate them into their homes, to realise their rights and recover their future.
Working with local and international peace activists, and partnering with grass-roots projects, to call for a just peace, reconciliation and full equal rights for all Palestinians and Israelis.
Addressing the impact of climate change and the causes of extreme poverty, building sustainable rural communities and empowering them to realise their rights.
Bringing people together to meet our partners from around the world, visiting the communities they work in and seeing their projects in action — building solidarity and lasting friendships.
At the core of Amos Trust’s work are the individuals who support us. Our work is made possible by you. Large or small, your donation makes a real difference.
