The British Islamic Medical Association (BIMA) has been featured in The New Arab for its advocacy on Palestine and the pressures faced by NHS staff speaking out against the crisis in Gaza.

The article highlights findings from a recent BIMA survey, where 97% of respondents reported their wellbeing had been negatively affected by the ongoing conflict. These results reflect the heavy toll on healthcare workers who continue to advocate for justice and human rights while facing increasing professional and personal challenges.

BIMA’s work is rooted in supporting Muslim healthcare professionals to raise their voices safely and effectively. In the piece, BIMA calls for the protection of medical neutrality, the right to speak out against genocide, and solidarity with those impacted.

Health workers have a duty to keep speaking out against genocide and we are here to support you. Follow this guide made with colleagues on how you can continue to advocate for Palestine safely and effectively.

The more united we are, the stronger our voices will be. Consider supporting BIMA as a paid member while we are offering 3 months of free membership if you sign up now via this link.
