Stop European Funding for Israeli Institutions, Stop Complicity in Occupation, Apartheid and Genocide

This petition, signed by AURDIP and other European academic organizations, urges the EU to end its complicity in Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza and in violation of international law. It denounces the continued EU funding of Israeli universities deeply tied to the military and occupation apparatus, while Palestinian universities are being systematically destroyed.

The petition calls on the EU to:

  • End all academic and research cooperation with Israeli institutions

  • Revoke Israel’s Horizon Europe status

  • Rebuild Palestinian academic institutions

  • Investigate the human rights impact of past and future EU research funding to Israel

It urges the EU to impose sanctions, including an arms embargo, and to use its leverage to enforce international law. It is open to researchers, university staff and students for signature by filling the form here.
