Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP; Arabic: طلاب من أجل العدالة في فلسطين, romanized: Ṭullāb min ajl al-ʿAdāla fī Filasṭīn) is a pro-Palestinian college student activism organization in the United States, Canada, and New Zealand. Founded at the University of California, Berkeley in 1993, it has campaigned for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement. The SJP praised Hamas's October 7 attacks on Israel as a "historic win for the Palestinian resistance". The group has faced accusations of antisemitism and a number of its campus chapters have been suspended.
