About the Ahava Campaign
Ahava markets its products as “Made in Israel,” but in fact, its products are manufactured in a factory compound located in an illegal settlement in the Occupied Palestinian Territories and it uses resources stolen from Palestinian land in direct contravention of international law.
The goals of this campaign are:
1. To hold Ahava accountable for its profiteering and breaching of international law.
2. To educate people about the ongoing occupation of Palestine.
3. To build public support for a just and sustainable peace for both Palestinians and Israelis.
We call on all people of conscience to join the global boycott of Ahava.
Boycott Occupation !!!
Boycott Apartheid !!!
