Marwan Barghouti has been unjustly imprisoned by Israel for over two decades, convicted in a trial by a court he did not recognise. Despite his imprisonment, poll after poll shows he’s Palestine’s most popular leader. A powerful symbol of unity and a long-time advocate for freedom and dignity for the Palestinian people.

“What is happening to Barghouti is exactly the same as what happened to me.”
Nelson Mandela, 2002

The Barghouti family, led by Marwan’s wife and lawyer Fadwa Barghouti, have campaigned for Marwan Barghouti’s release since the first days of his unlawful imprisonment in 2002. Through her tireless advocacy, Fadwa built an international movement for the freedom of her husband and all Palestinian political prisoners.

Marwan’s son, Arab Barghouti and Raja Maoussaoui from the Free Marwan campaign, will be in conversation with Amos’ Chris Rose to discuss the relaunch of the campaign to free his father and why his release is not only vastly overdue but is vital if Palestinian aspirations are to be realised and for the future.

About Arab Barghouti

Arab Barghouti is the son of prominent Palestinian political leader Marwan Barghouti, who has been a central figure in Palestinian politics for decades and is currently serving multiple life sentences in an Israeli prison following a trial that international legal experts have said was deeply flawed.

Arab speaks publicly about his father’s role in Palestinian politics and has become one of the family’s main advocates, raising international awareness about both his father’s detention and broader concerns for Palestinian political prisoners. He has been quoted in international media urging global support for his father’s release as a catalyst for legitimate Palestinian leadership, unity, democracy and self-determination.

His advocacy work involves engaging with media and international audiences to highlight the humanitarian and political dimensions of his father’s continued imprisonment.
