رزان زعيتر تحدث عيبال عن قصة المليون شجرة

On 26/9/2017, Ms. Laila Hijawi, a member of the Cultural Committee of the Ebal Association invited the Arab Group for the Protection of Nature to narrate its story. Ms Razan Zuayter, founder of the Million Tree Campaign, gave an illustrative presentation of APN’s experiences, programs, and accomplishments.

Ms. Zuayter spoke about the inception of the Million Tree Campaign, which was initiated in response to the Second Intifada in 2000. The Campaign was launched as a means of institutionalizing communication channels with those inside Palestine, and defying the war that settlers had raged against historical Palestinian trees.

A number of APN’s friends attended the presentation, which was followed by a lively conversation about APN’s philosophy and its achievements, where APN President Rami Barhoush and Project Manager Mohammad Qtaishat also spoke about their experiences.
