Al Qaws

alQaws is a Palestinian civil society organization founded in grassroots activism, aiming to be at the forefront of Palestinian cultural and social change. The organization works to build LGBTQ+ communities and promote new ideas about the role of gender and sexual diversity in political activism, civil society institutions, media, and everyday life. The organization also describes itself as "queer-feminist" and "anti-colonial" in regards to the Israeli-occupied territories.

In August 2019, the Palestinian Authority banned Al Qaws from operating in the West Bank. The ban was later withdrawn by the end of the month following backlash.
