Last year the TUC passed a historic motion recognising the apartheid nature of the state of Israel. Alongside the recent Human Rights Watch report, and with the recent attacks on Palestinians in Gaza and Jerusalem in May, we need to make sure that we step up our solidarity with Palestine.
Join us to hear from specialists and trade unionists, to find out about the current situation in Palestine and what you and your trade union can do to end Israeli apartheid and reach freedom, justice and equality for the Palestinians.
Speakers:
Dr Yara Hawari, Palestinian author and senior policy analyst for Al-Shabaka: The Palestinian Policy Network
Yasmine Ahmed, Director Human Rights Watch UK
Gail Cartmail, President TUC & AGS Unite the Union
Mark Serwotka, General Secretary PCS
Jo Grady, General Secretary UCU
Kevin Courtney, TUC GC International Spokesperson and NEU Joint General Secretary
Mariela Kohon, Senior International Officer TUC
