The Occupied Palestine and Syrian Golan Heights Advocacy Initiative (OPGAI) is a common platform for NGOs working in the West Bank and the Golan Heights to coordinate their activities for the World Social Forum and elsewhere. OPGAI is an alliance of civil society organizations that is advocating to end the occupation of Palestine and the Syrian Golan Heights.

In 2006 and 2007, OPGAI presented a call for boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against Israel in the World Social Forum.
