Connecting Humanity (also known as eSims for Gaza) is an activist collective which provides internet access to people in Gaza using donated eSIMs, allowing them to connect to networks outside of Gaza.[1][2][3] It is run by Mirna El Helbawi, an Egyptian journalist, writer and activist.[4][5] Over 200,000 people in Gaza (around 10% of the population) have received internet access through an eSIM.[6][7]
