This article examines the social and political determinants of the Israeli occupation in Palestine and how these create specific vulnerabilities for women. Although marginalized, women have always been active in the resistance to the Israeli occupation, despite being specifically targeted. Depoliticization processes by international organizations have further weakened their efforts for social change. To confront this marginalization, the article highlights the different ways that women resist structural discrimination and develop agency and resilience by defying gendered dimensions in regard to the occupation and structures of patriarchy
