EECS4Palestine is now STEM4Palestine!
We are Berkeley students who believe our labor and innovations should be used for social good, and not for genocide & apartheid. STEM for Palestine stands for the absolute and total liberation of all people from all oppression. Palestine is our compass and guiding cause. We stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine, East Turkestan, Sudan, the Congo, and all people fighting for liberation.
STEM4Palestine is open to all students from all departments! We do not believe that there is a one-size-fits-all solution to being ethical in the tech industry. We believe that liberation cannot be an individual project. Towards this vision, STEM for Palestine brings together a collective voice to develop an alternative future for STEM, social, and economic justice.
