MAPS - VANISHING PALESTINE
http://interactive.aljazeera.com/aje/PalestineRemix/maps_main.html
The transformation of Palestine into a Jewish state was a deliberate, drawn-out and violent process. Palestinians were dispossessed of vast swaths of land. Over 80 percent of Palestinians, in what became Israel in 1948, were made into refugees overnight. This process culminated in 1948 but began in the early 20th century. It continues today.

These sections by country aim to put together highlights of possible actions for human rights and justice that are unique to each country (like US, Canada, Australia etc). Obviously there are also common actions that are to be done by all (e.g. campaigns like breaking the siege on Gaza). Certainly and by nature actions in Palestine are the most significant and have led the actions for our freedom. We in Palestine have engaged in resisting the Zionist project for 130+ years (the date of the first Zionist colony in Palestine).
We will soon put in this sections a history including selected examples of inspiring actions on the ground. We will also endeavor to help local resistance committees who do not have their own webpage by creating a webpage here for their activities. In the meantime, here is a list of local civil resistance/nonviolent struggle Groups (selected) that can be accessed to help:

Nakba Memory and Hope Project:
Time is running out! The 1948 survivors are now in danger of losing the chance to tell their stories, because no one has built a space for their voices to be heard. The Nakba Museum Project aims to do precisely that- and ensure that the Palestinian legacy of endurance is passed on to future generations. It is a legacy that speaks to both peoples that sharing the land is indeed possible.
While the media carries the urgent news of war and death, a museum allows us to place the immediate events in Israel/Palestine into a larger story, inviting people to understand what appears as a cause today is nothing more than a symptom of an unresolved yesterday. The Nakba project begins a new conversation in Washington by insisting that the history that we do not understand is the history we are most likely to repeat. Since the idea was conceived in June 2014, the founders have discovered a real groundswell of support for the idea.
The Nakba project is committed to being nonpolitical and nonpartisan. It will be a space which simply tells the human story, with all its paradoxes and pathos. It will not be about taking sides or proving someone right and wrong. Rather it aims to build a deeper understanding of the current impasse, and become a place for critical conversations for change.
The museum will be launched in stages and initially display paintings, art work, educational materials, articles, historic artifacts, and show movies. In stage two, it will host events, seminars, conferences, in which refugees and their relatives share their personal stories. The goal of each display or event will be to create a culture of listening and represent a non-contested space, through a simple invitation to witness.
