Except Palestine: Conflict, Development and De-Development

On December 29, the International Court of Justice announced South Africa's application against Israel, citing Genocide Convention violations concerning Palestinians in Gaza. In the first hearing on January 11, Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh KC, Counsel and Advocate for South Africa, noted “this is a population that Israel had already made vulnerable through 16 years of military blockade and crippling de-development."

Join us for the third instalment in the "Except Palestine" series, hosted across London universities. Our distinguished panel will analyse the economic, legal, and social challenges stemming from the current situation, placing it within the longer history and broader discourse on development and de-development.

This is a free event, which means we overbook to allow for no-shows and to avoid empty seats. While we generally do not have to turn people away, this does mean we cannot guarantee all ticket holders a place. Admission is on a first come, first served basis. Those without tickets will not be admitted.
