Join us on Thursday, December 19, for a special webinar that delves into the future of a free Syria in a post-regime era. Speakers will include long time Syrian activists Rafif Jouejati (NVI board chair), and Sweida activist Noura Salam.
The collapse of the Assad regime on December 8, 2024, is of historic significance: it marks the end of more than half a century of authoritarian oppression, during which countless thousands of Syrians were disappeared, tortured, or killed by their own government.
Since 2011 and as part of the Arab Spring movements, Syrians have experienced both nonviolent and armed resistance. Upwards of 400,000 civilians were killed; millions of others were internally displaced or became refugees.
Today, with liberation from the Assad regime, the future of Syria is hopeful but unclear as the transition period begins. Outside governments continue to interfere in Syria’s affairs with sanctions, troops, attacks, and weaponry.
Join our Syrian nonviolent activists as they talk about their experience and their hopes and plans, register here to be part of this important conversation!. This webinar is anopportunity to gain deep insights from sources who have played an important part in the struggle against tyranny and who offer valuable knowledge so you, as part of the global family committed to peace and justice, can contribute to Syria’s bright future.
We hope you will leave the webinar with a clearer idea as to how you, as part of the global family committed to peace and justice, can contribute to Syria’s bright future.
With faith in a free and just Syria,
