As a cooperative EMMA has the privilege to be able to refuse contracts from clients which we find morally unacceptable. To that end we have chosen to commit ourselves to the BDS Movement's Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel. You can read the text of our commitment below and on our website.
PACBI ends when Palestine is free.

In total solidarity with the people of Palestine, the EMMA Technology Cooperative commits to adhering to the Palestinian international call for Boycott, Divestment, & Sanctions (BDS) & to complying with the underlying guidelines of the [Palestinian Campaign for the Academic & Cultural Boycott of Israel PACBI.

Regardless of this commitment none of our members have or would have accepted a contract tied to the occupation of Palestine. However, we believe that this policy is worth stating publicly and in absolute terms.

We are grateful to the numerous other organizations and businesses in our home of NYC for sharing information and resources relevant to PACBI, especially @nyc_noise.
