(This website was recently re-formatted and some of the links to our older podcasts (pre-2014) may not be working. Thanks for your patience as we work to resolve this issue. Also, please note that Voice of Palestine is not currently soliciting donations or involved in any fundraising at this time.)

UPDATE: Voice of Palestine is no longer regularly posting new weekly or monthly shows after 30 years of actively being either on the air or on the web. However, collective members are still committed to bringing the often muffled and neglected voice of the Palestinian people to the Canadian public through articles and social media. (We may also post new shows on an occasional basis.)

Check out the VOP FB group or email hkawas@msn.com for background info.

History: The show first went on the air in September, 1987, and for the first twenty-five years it broadcast weekly on Vancouver Cooperative Radio (CFRO 102.7 FM). On October 24th, 2012, following major disagreements with Co-op Radio over policy issues (see history section), VOP switched to the web-based format.
