What Palestinians want for Gaza's future | Rethinking Humanitarianism

Three years into Israel's genocide in Gaza, the US-led Board of Peace is already trying to determine the strip's future reconstruction plans. But what about the more than two million Palestinians who call the Gaza Strip home? And the many more Palestinians living in the West Bank or exiled in the diaspora?

Our editor Eric Reidy sets the scene for what's been happening since last year's so-called ceasefire, and then we hear a collage of Palestinian voices. They discuss the reconstruction conversations happening without them, what they want for the future of Gaza, and what the humanitarian system should do to support that vision.

Guests:

Rasha Abou Jalal, author and journalist

Amir Abu Qasim, student

Nour ElAssy, poet and writer

Shahed ElAssy, law student

Shahd Hammouri, lecturer at the University of Kent

Bushra Khalidi, Oxfam's Global Humanitarian Policy Lead

Eric Reidy, The New Humanitarian's Migration & Special Coverage Editor
