The Administering Authority: Scottish Borders Council
We ask that you write a regular letter to your Councillors to urge them to support the divestment of companies complicit in Israel’s violations of Palestinian rights from the Scottish Borders Pension Fund.
Make sure that the Pension Fund is not invested in any of the companies highlighted by the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNHCHR), whose activities in the illegally Occupied Palestinians Territories have raised particular human rights concerns.
