Mapping Solidarity traces and makes visible the networks of solidarity with Palestine in Amsterdam. 

Mapping is not only a way of representing solidarity, but a practice of solidarity itself, creating new possibilities for connection and resistance.

 

Through this participatory workshop, art and culture workers, activists, and participants can reflect on recent pro-Palestine actions, campaigns, and boycotts across cultural, educational, and public spaces.

The map facilitates conversations around key questions: What has worked? Where have we fallen short? How can we strengthen our networks, resist fragmentation, and build more coordinated strategies toward our shared aims? The map serves as an active tool for documenting struggles, making connections visible, identifying gaps, and imagining future action, bridging past, present, and future.

 

The workshop is accompanied by extracts from the publication Standing, Photographing, Sitting, Filming, Organising, Screenshotting, Resharing, in Solidarity, including a scene of the 2024 UvA barricade, enlarged by Alina Lupu.

Bio

Mapping Solidarity for Palestine is a collaborative artistic and activist working group based in Amsterdam. Composed of art workers, researchers, and community organisers, the group operates horizontally through workshops, collective decision-making, and working groups focused on research, mapping, and direct action.

The group gathers the community to reflect on pro-Palestine actions and cultural boycotts, using mapping as both a research method and a political tool. Sessions have taken place at W139, GROND, BAK Basecamp, and Pakhuis de Zwijger, with support from Platform BK.

 

For this presentation, the wider group of 16 is represented by Saja Amro, Elektra Tatalia-Aloupi, Alina Lupu and Samuel Salminen.
