Free Palestine Central Victoria (FPCV) is a grassroots, volunteer collective of diverse locals united in deep concern for the people of Palestine. Inspired by global action, we have come together to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people in their calls for peace, justice, and freedom.

As a collective, we value and respect the humanity of all people, faiths, and backgrounds. We mourn the tragic loss of all innocent lives. We are especially shocked and disturbed by the persistent, indiscriminate violence and killing of innocent civilians in Gaza despite repeated global calls for a ceasefire. This crisis demands urgent attention; we must remain focused on the ongoing fight to end the genocide and oppression of the Palestinian people.

We advocate for the human rights of all Palestinian people, in accordance with international law, including the rights to self-determination, the right of return to their homelands, and the right to sovereignty over their natural resources. We affirm and amplify Palestinian voices in calling for freedom and vehemently oppose any censorship of valid criticism of their oppression.

Free Palestine Central Victoria unequivocally condemns all forms of violence, racism and hate speech including those that are Islamophobic or antisemitic.

We acknowledge Dja Dja Wurrung as the Traditional Owners of the lands on which we live, work and organise. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present, and their emerging leaders. We recognise that the ongoing land theft, occupation and genocide of the Palestinian people is deeply connected to First Nations struggles here and across the globe.

From the river to the sea, always was, always will be.
