Waves Of Freedom Switzerland
Our Objective
In Gaza, the humanitarian crisis is critical. Boats must set sail without delay to deliver life-saving aid. Waves of Freedom is joining the Global Sumud Flotilla, alongside citizens from more than 38 countries, to break the blockade and open a humanitarian corridor to Palestine. The Swiss delegation is preparing and currently seeking 5 boats to participate in this international movement toward Gaza.
Fundraising and Boat Financing
We run fundraising campaigns to finance boat charters and purchasing humanitarian supplies. Every donation turns this mission into reality: launching boats, saving lives, and denouncing genocide. Our resource management is guided by transparency and efficiency.
A Global Citizen-Led Initiative
In the face of government inaction, it is citizens, associations, and solidarity networks that are stepping up. Their goal: to act and show that a human and determined response is possible. Take action now !
Raise Awareness & Speak Out
This is more than a mission, it's an active awareness campaign : informing about the situation in Gaza, denouncing the illegal blockade, raising public awareness about the ongoing genocide. It is time for Switzerland to honor its commitments and turn principles into action.
