Despite the announcements made by the Minister of Education and Research and the Administrator of the Collège de France, we look forward to welcoming many of you.
We would like to thank all speakers for confirming their participation and travel to France, as well as the many scholars, researchers, and students who have expressed their commitment to academic freedom and the independence of research.
The cancellation decision, announced over a long weekend, made the reorganization of the event particularly complex. Unfortunately, the new venue will not allow us to host the entire expected audience under optimal conditions.
Holding the event outside the walls of the Collège de France has become an opportunity to reaffirm a fundamental principle: academic knowledge is not confined to any single place and is meant to be shared as widely as possible.
The conference will be livestreamed and fully recorded. We invite universities, higher education institutions, cultural organizations, research centers, and NGOs to open viewing spaces and provide rooms and screens so that students and interested audiences can follow the sessions collectively.
The opening session of the conference “Palestine and Europe: The Weight of the Past and Contemporary Dynamics” will be held at CAREP Paris, 12 rue Raymond Aron, 75013 Paris, with speakers, the press, and the public (within the limit of available seating). The conference will continue in the afternoon and the following day via live broadcast on CAREP Paris platforms.
Despite the announcements made by the Minister of Education and Research and the Administrator of the Collège de France, we look forward to welcoming many of you.
