Faculty for Palestine (F4P) is a Canada-wide network of academics committed to advancing the struggle for Palestinian liberation, justice, and equality through the academic sector. F4P is founded on anti-racist, anti-colonial, social justice principles. We oppose Israeli apartheid, occupation, and settler colonialism. F4P specifically organizes on academic freedom, freedom of expression, and boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) against Israel.
Israel has systematically undermined Palestinian centres of education since the beginning of its occupation. Since the beginning of the current war, the bombing and raiding of universities, and targeted wounding and killing of academics and students in Gaza and the West Bank has been unrelenting. Scholasticide has become a dangerous aspect of Israel’s genocidal war against the Palestinian people. The figures below represent the scale of Scholasticide in Gaza alone during the first 100 days of war.
