We re-launched our Guatemala Accompaniment Program (GAP) with the following goals:

  • organize to link campaigns led by Guatemalan social justice movements with their counterparts in the U.S. and expand opportunities for volunteers to organize;
  • strengthen relationships in communities, deepen existing partnerships, and maintain historic principles of accompaniment; and
  • generate horizontal exchange between communities in the U.S. and Guatemala that are impacted by the same global systems of oppression.

📸 Rene Ann Goodrich speaks about the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women crisis at a NISGUA screening of 500 Years, a documentary about the struggle for justice after the Maya genocides. GAP Internacionalista will continue to connect movements across borders.
