2021: Palestine Solidarity Statement by lecturers at Leiden University — Dutch Scholars for Palestine 0 Palestine SOLIDARITY STATEMENT May 2021 Letter initiated by lecturers at Leiden University Nederlands hoger onderwijs solidair met Palestijnen Dutch higher education in solidarity with Palestine Wij zijn wetenschappers en docenten in het Nederlandse hoger onderwijs en wij nemen stelling tegen de voortdurende ontheemding, bezetting en oorlog waaraan de staat Israël Palestijnen onderwerpt. Op de Nakbaherdenking, 73 jaar na de gedwongen uitzetting van Palestijnen uit hun huizen in wat nu Israël is, tonen wij ons solidair met alle Palestijnen. Onze steun gaat uit naar Palestijnen in Gaza, de Westelijke Jordaanoever en Israël, alsook naar de zeven miljoen vluchtelingen over de hele wereld, ook in Nederland, onder wie onze collega’s en studenten. De indruk dat dit een conflict is tussen twee gelijke zijden is een gevaarlijke vertroebeling van de werkelijkheid: het leidt af van de realiteit dat het de Palestijnen zijn die leven onder militaire bezetting, die ontheemd zijn, en die leven als tweederangsburgers in een systeem van segregatie dat volgens zowel B’tselem als Human Rights Watch in feite neerkomt op apartheid. Dit soort geweld en discriminatie vormen de oorzaak van de geweldsescalatie die nu plaatsvindt. We roepen de Nederlandse regering op erop toe te zien dat gerechtigheid geschiedt voor de Palestijnen en dat hun volledige rechten worden gewaarborgd. Dit is de enige mani

An Open Letter from University Staff Across the Netherlands — Dutch Scholars for Palestine 0 An open letter from university staff across the Netherlands We, university staff from across the Netherlands, would like to express our full support for the students who have protested for the last three weeks across our campuses to demand an end to our universities’ complicity with the ongoing genocide in Gaza, as well as decades of occupation, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing carried out by Israel on the Palestinian people. It is our students who have transformed our campuses and forced us all to confront the ongoing genocide in Gaza, including our role in supporting it. Now that we are being forced as academic communities to engage with this issue, we note two extremely worrying trends, which we believe are designed to distract from the urgency to take action. First, discussions within the media, by our politicians, and on our campuses obsess about the nature of the protests which have taken place. Many of our students, especially in Amsterdam and Utrecht, are being smeared as violent and creating unsafe environments, particularly for Jewish students. But this represents a weaponisation of both the language of social safety and antisemitism. It also ignores the fact that a considerable number of those taking part in actions are Jewish staff and students. Other encampments are being praised for remaining 'peaceful'. But both narratives are being used as ways for Executive boards (CvB

Travel Grant - Scholarships for Euro-Arab Dialogue Search Close Search Travel Grant The travel grant is designed for students and/or professionals seeking professional contact and experience in the Arab World or the Netherlands in the areas of education, science and culture. The objective of the grant is to promote mutual understanding between the Netherlands and the Arab World. Application requirements Since September, my journey has led me to the heart of Jordan, where I’ve been immersed in a training program focused on social work with migrants and refugees. Beyond the academic rigors, Jordan has offered me a wealth of cultural and natural wonders to explore. From the ancient marvels of Petra to the bustling souks of Amman, every corner of this country has something unique to offer. Besides delving into the complexities of humanitarian aid and its positioning in Jordan, I’ve had the opportunity to immerse myself in Jordan’s rich cultural tapestry. From wandering the ancient city of Petra to navigating the vibrant streets of Amman’s souks, I’ve been enchanted by the sights, sounds, and flavors of this country. Even interactions with taxi drivers have become cultural lessons, with hand gestures simplifying the process of ordering a typical Jordanian coffee. – Eline Koopman, Travel scholar 2024 Read Our Alumni Stories Contact Correspondence Address: Lutfia Rabbani Foundation P.O.
