BDS

What is BDS?

BDS refers to the application of pressure in an effort to change government and corporate practices. It is a non-violent tactic employed by a grassroots movement to achieve social justice. In addition to boycott, divestment, and sanctions, it also includes corporate engagement and morally responsible investment. Despite the narrow economic tactic, the goal is to shame violators of human rights and shape public opinion.

Why BDS?

BDS is a moral, effective and non-violent approach. It is used by a grassroots movement to achieve change when a situation seems intractable at a governmental and political level.
