The key is a symbol of the Right of Return (Awda in Arabic) for Palestinian refugees – a right enshrined in International Law.

Edinburgh Action for Palestine hold a short period of Reflection at the Awda Key, Palmerston Place (beside St Mary’s Cathedral), Edinburgh, at 6:15 on the 24th of each month.

We are there in sunshine and rain!

Visitors to Edinburgh – Palestinian, Israeli and others – also visit the key, see our gallery below.
