SUMMARY:Resisting Lawfare on Campus
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \n\nIn the face of growing student support for Pa
 lestinian rights on campus\, Israel and its allies are using a myriad of t
 actics to suppress support for Palestinian human rights\, including suppor
 t for the the Palestinian-led movement for Boycott\, Divestment and Sancti
 ons until Israel complies with international law.\n\nThis includes lawfare
 \; using threats of litigation and semi-legal arguments to attempt to prev
 ent and restrict pro-Palestine events on campus. Crude lawfare tactics mea
 n pro-Palestine events can be subject to a host of restrictions\, includin
 g the imposition of ‘neutral’ chairs\, and the condition that an oppos
 ing view must be heard.\n\nMoreover\, the statutory duties in the governme
 nt’s Prevent agenda\, and the pressure being exerted on universities to 
 adopt the full IHRA definition of antisemitism\, with examples and without
  caveats\, can contribute to a stifling of voices speaking up for Palestin
 ian rights on campus.\n\nWhile most pro-Palestine events on campus go off 
 without a hitch\, it’s vital we’re prepared\, and informed of our lega
 l rights to campaign in solidarity with Palestine.\n\nJoin this webinar wi
 th legal experts to hear what to do if your event faces unfair\, and poten
 tially illegal\, restrictions in the run up to Israeli Apartheid Week 2021
 . Find out about the support that will be available to you to ensure IAW 2
 021 is the biggest and most successful ever.\n\nSPEAKERS:\nDima Khalidi\, 
 Director\, Palestine Legal\nGiovanni Fassina\, European Legal Support Cent
