This past week, Americans for Peace Now released Facts on the Ground, a new, completely revamped and
upgraded version of the groundbreaking settlements map app, available for free on iPhone and Android.
Facts on the Ground is one-of-a-kind – there simply is no other mobile app available to educate and update
the public about Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
We rely on your support to maintain this tool and put it in the hands of as many people as possible. Please donate

solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Facts on the Ground serves as an incredibly valuable tool for policymakers, diplomats, journalists,
teachers, students, and anyone else interested in the Israeli settlement enterprise. APN is setting a fundraising
goal of $15,000, which will allow us to optimize Facts on the Ground and attract users around the
world.

Tension on the Israel-Gaza border has produced another paroxysm of violence, followed by another ceasefire. Over the last two years, APN has devoted special attention to the situation in Gaza through PeaceCast, our podcast. For valuable perspectives and background, check out our Gaza-focused episodes.
Israel's 51-year-old occupation of the West Bank – which denies Palestinians their rights, corrodes Israeli society and democracy, and continually damages prospects for Israeli-Palestinian peace – is fundamentally anchored in the Israeli settlement enterprise in the West Bank. Settlements stand in the way of a two-state solution by preventing a viable, contiguous, independent state of Palestine, a purpose for which they were explicitly designed.
That’s why Americans for Peace Now is today releasing Facts on the Ground, a new, completely revamped and upgraded version of the groundbreaking settlements map app, available for free on iPhone and Android.
