Sami Awad on Non-Violent Resistance Against the Israeli Occupation from Stephen Sizer on Vimeo.

Dr Sami Awad is the founder of the Holy Land Trust.

Holy Land Trust is a not-for-profit organization established in Bethlehem in 1998. Holy Land Trust (HLT) seeks to empower the community through mobilizing its strengths and resources in order to address the challenges of the present and create real opportunities for the future.

Through a commitment to the principles of nonviolence, HLT seeks to develop spiritual, pragmatic, and strategic approaches that will empower the Palestinian community to resist all forms of oppression, and engage this same community in making the Holy Land be what it is supposed to be: a global model and pillar of understanding, respect, justice, equality and peaceful coexistence.

To strengthen international involvement and advocacy in order to achieve this purpose, Holy Land Trust has created unique travel and encounter programs as well as authentic and comprehensive media and news programs.
