This #IWD2025 we are resharing our open letter in solidarity with our sisters in Palestine. We are now 17 months in to Israel’s genocidal assault.

“For those of you who have remained silent on this issue, we want you to know that your silence is both hurting and harming us.”

A lovely evening spent at the annual @LANT_ern Iftar surrounded by many influential women. Alhamdulillah we get to enjoy a wonderful feast after a day of fasting but this isn’t a privilege everyone gets. We were reminded of this with the words of @RehanaFaisalH and @shana1Qbal
