Urgent Measures
The below list of actions are ones which you can take to help stop the genocide in Gaza. However, now — 18+ months into the genocide — with the understanding that Israel and the US will stop at nothing to wipe out the inhabitants of Palestine, stronger measures are needed. We must call on other nations to fulfill their internationally recognized lawful and moral imperative.
Protect Palestine leads the way by stating that all people worldwide must call “upon the Organization of Islamic states to urgently establish an armed coalition of states to stop the genocide against Palestinians, ensure unhindered aid, protect civilians, and guarantee the Palestinian right to self determination.” We have created an email generator to make it easier for you to contact the representatives for the states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
Listen to a short clip of the administrator of Protect Palestine, Ousman Noor, discuss the intervention during a meeting. Then listen to the full meeting (audio starts at 1:25).
Actions
The actions below will soon link to pages with more information and detailed instructions for each. For now, treat it as a research project. Take actions that leverage your particular passions and skills. We would love to hear your thoughts on them, how we should expand each, and if there are any important actions you think we should add.
- Become more knowledgeable about the genocide.
- Contact your government representatives via phone and email to stop the genocide. Meet with them or their deputy director in person. If you are in the United States, find contact information for your representative.
- Wear supportive clothing, i.e. wrist bands, keffiyehs, badges, that may start conversations.
- Walk with protesters in support of Palestine.
- Talk about it to everyone you know and don’t know. Talk at a level, and in terms, that they can relate to.
- Donate to aid organizations that support Gaza: World Central Kitchen, UNRWA, Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, Palestine Red Crescent Society, Freedom Flotilla, etc.
- Donate to organizations that seek justice for Israeli war criminals.
- Personally provide services with which you have experience, e.g. graphic, technical, legal, etc., to organizations that support this cause.
- Boycott Israeli products and services. Boycott all companies whose products and services facilitate the genocide.
- Consider that there are people who risk their lives to attempt to personally bring food and medicine to Gaza.
- Embrace and support the long-term vision of a United States government free of corruption, or as close to it as possible.

About Us
We, the Stop Genocide team, began this site recently, in May 2025. It lists resources, suggestions, and tools to empower concerned individuals to stop potential and current genocides. We will address other genocides in the future, but due to its particular urgency (and our limited resources) our focus is currently on the genocide that Israel is conducting in Gaza with the full and unconditional backing of the United States.
