Don't let the Saharawis be priced out of justice!25.04 - 2022
Our case against the UK government will be heard because people like you pledged over £5,000 in the autumn last year towards the cost cap determined by the court. Without these contributions, the Western Sahara Campaign would not have been permitted to proceed with its case against the UK government that granting trade preferences for goods taken from the Western Sahara without the permission of the people of the territory is illegal.Read more
Support from Saharawi civil society for our court case22.04 - 2022
We are humbled that representatives of Saharawi Civil Society living in the Occupied Territories of Western Sahara have written in support of our court case against the British government regarding the inclusion of the territories of occupied Western Sahara in the new trade deal between the UK and Morocco.

You can read the letter below.

Together with our Saharawi brothers and sisters, we seek justice for the Saharawi people.

The UN Security Council is reviewing MINURSO, its mission to Western Sahara.

It must do better.

The abject failure of the Security Council to apply the terms of the 1991 Peace Agreement or even to appoint a new and credible special envoy has led to a resumption of war in the Western Sahara. MINURSO has no referendum to organise, no ceasefire to monitor, and its current mandate lacks a human rights function. In the absence of rapid and substantive actions by the Council, MINURSO will be irrelevant to the Saharawi people at a time when repression in the occupied territory is increasing, economic exploitation deepening, and the refugee camps are on a war footing. All this comes amid the Covid crisis.
