Online, 9 AM CT

My name is Alex Feagans and I am a researcher with Adalah Justice Project. I’m writing to invite you to an urgent and timely conversation hosted by our partners at Al-Shabaka.
In March, Israel shattered the ceasefire in Gaza by resuming its relentless bombing and imposing a total blockade on humanitarian aid—ushering in a new, even more brutal phase of the genocide.
In response to growing international outrage, the Israeli government rolled out the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF)—a program designed not to deliver meaningful relief, but to mask and maintain its policy of collective starvation and forced displacement.
Through GHF, Israel has restricted access to aid distribution points, collapsed the reach of UN agencies, and funneled desperate Palestinians toward four isolated aid sites near Gaza’s southern border—pushing them closer to Egypt in what increasingly looks like a strategy of mass expulsion.
Behind this policy lies a network of private actors and US-based contractors who are profiting from what is, in reality, a death trap masquerading as humanitarian assistance. I’ve spent the last eight weeks diving into incorporation documents, financial reports, and news articles to better understand the network supporting GHF.
In this Policy Lab, I’ll be joining health policy scholar Yara Asi and host Tariq Kenney-Shawa to break down how the GHF operates as part of Israel’s broader genocidal strategy—and to expose who is benefitting from it.
