Since the Oslo Accords in 1993, more than $50 billion has flowed into Palestine in the form of humanitarian and development aid. Thirty years later, what impact has this had and where has the money gone? What progress has this international support enabled in the resistance against the colonial project of the State of Israel? This series delves behind the scenes of the relationship between the international donor community, non-governmental organizations, civil society, and Palestinian governments.

Today, we will listen to Episode 1 of this series as a group. Here is the synopsis:

01.

Shadow State

"The Jews were given Israel, and we were given UNRWA," said Palestinian politician Salah Salah. We visited Palestinian refugee camps in the West Bank and Lebanon to learn more about the role of one of the largest United Nations organizations—the agency created for Palestinian refugees—in their struggle for self-determination."

Fumaça is an independent, non-profit investigative journalism podcast focused on scrutinizing systems of oppression and inequality.

Two of Fumaça's journalists will accompany us on this day during the listening session, and at the end, we will open the floor for discussion.

See you soon!!!
