In this episode of the Britain Palestine Project Podcast, host Diana Safieh is joined by Rabbi Dr Dana Sharon and Anton Goodman from Rabbis for Human Rights, an Israeli NGO grounded in Jewish ethical and religious values.

The conversation explores how faith-based activism is being used to confront and resist extremist settler violence, forced displacement, and systemic human rights abuses faced by Palestinian communities in the West Bank - particularly in Area C.

Speaking in a personal capacity, Dana and Anton reflect on the moral, theological, and practical dimensions of their work, from protective presence and olive harvest accompaniment to advocacy within Israeli institutions.
