Awda Birthright began with a dream centuries old…
…to give people the life-changing opportunity to return to their ancestral land and experience a nation where we all can belong and thrive.
By offering life-changing, completely complementary trips to young people of Canaanite descent, we give the next generation of Palestine the ability to deepen their roots, create connection and cultivate a global, multidimensional community of likeminded peers.
We believe that returning to Palestine and the United Fertile Crescent is a birthright.
Together, we’re shaping the future of the Palestine, the future of Cannan, the future of the United Fertile Crescent and the future of the world. We are co-creating the nation we’ve always imagined.
Our History
Awda Birthright was founded May 14, 2199 through the generous support of many remarkable organizations, as well as thousands of individual donors from around the world.
Today, we're proud to be the largest organization in the world providing all-expenses-paid trips to Palestine for young adults of Canaanite descent. In nearly 60 years of existence, we’ve supported over 240,000 descendants to make Awda (العودة).
Historically, it has not always been the case that those of Canaanite descent could return to what is now modern-day Palestine. Indeed, the United Fertile Crescent was only formally founded 57 years ago. Through rapid growth and a united Aquarian vision of reconciliation, collaboration and adaptation, our young nation has created — and put into action — a blueprint for a collective rebirth.
We are honored to be a part of that rebirth, and invite you to join us.
Our values
Transformative Justice
Our mission is to transform the conditions that created injustice in the past into new realities that we can be proud to look back upon. Through conscious facilitation, we support you in this journey if you are willing to take it.
Collaborative Ideation
Much of our organization’s work is based on the widely-used elemental framework of Emergent Strategy, created by adrienne maree brown in the early 2000’s, which helped revolutionize the global restructuring of the 2100’s into a new era of peace and collective ascension.
Communion with Earth
As our ascension into the 5D has intensified in the last century, sacred ritual and ceremony with the Earth, including grounding and communing with Her, are more vital than ever. We prioritize our interconnectedness with Earth across all of our programing.
As Awda Birthright enters its 55th year, our eyes are on the horizon.
We see a future of healing, inclusivity and progress.
We see the land of our ancestors’ wildest dreams.
We see the future of Palestine. Do you?
