Lina Ismail on the benefit of initiatives remaining informal (not registered as NGOs) so they can focus on their work, not on so much funding and bureaucracy--funding to informal initiatives can happen through umbrella orgs.

Jamal Juma'a on how large funds are not always needed to support ag initiatives, and Lina Ismail on staying critical even with solidarity-based foreign funds and local funds/self-support, to prioritize anti-dependency and avoiding systems we seek to emancipate ourselves from

Yara Dowani talking about Umm Suleiman farm's initial no-funding policy, and how they grew to see volunteers, donated goods/land, loans, & trust-based non-conditional local community foundation grants from @DaliaAssoc and @RawaFund as part of a supportive resource ecosystem

George Korzom talking about the importance of mobilizing youth and local farming knowledge and resources as the way to work toward real food sovereignty, including covering basic food needs through local products liberated from Israeli controls

Lina Ismail on regaining Palestinian autonomy over the land and food sovereignty, including through ethical consumer practices like supporting farms directly by shopping at farmer's markets

"Most of them are not there for the income, but because they see the Palestine close what we want to see--regenerating the land, working together...to regain the farming and self-sufficiency from our ancestors that was lost." --Yara Dowani, Umm Suleiman farm
