How has life changed for Palestinians inside Israel since 7 October? What forms of discrimination and violence are they facing, and how are these affecting their education, safety and everyday lives? And what does the future look like for Palestinians under a new Israeli government?
This discussion will explore some of the most pressing issues affecting Palestinian communities, including:
• Discrimination in higher education, including the two-track disciplinary system adopted by Israeli universities and colleges towards Palestinian and Jewish-Israeli students since 7 October.
• Organised crime and violence in Palestinian communities and its impact on people’s safety and everyday lives.
• Everyday discrimination faced by Palestinian students and citizens of Israel.
• Israel’s new government, what does this mean for Palestinians living inside 48?
