As the first anniversary approaches for Amnesty International’s report on Israel, which concluded that Israel is committing the crime against humanity of Apartheid and is conducting systemic persecution against Palestinians, now is as good a time as ever for the world to be reminded of the content of the report and its various implications, amongst others, on international law, on the duties and obligations of the international community to uphold it, on the struggle for Palestinian self-determination and statehood and the global campaign to stop the ongoing violations of the human rights of Palestinians.

This online lecture is an opportunity not to be missed to hear from the horse’s mouth, so to speak, about the whys and hows of the said report and the implications and challenges that it entails. All are invited.
