Description

This panel will reflect on the concept of scholasticide—the systematic destruction of the educational life of national, ethnic, or religious groups—focusing on Gaza. The discussion will cover the destruction of all universities in Gaza during the most recent war, the loss of thousands of Palestinian faculty, staff, and students, and the ongoing struggle to preserve education under dire conditions. Join us for an important conversation on the resilience, challenges, and aspirations of scholars in Gaza.
