Join the BDS@UCL group to explore the role of technology in both enabling and resisting genocide.
Learn from researchers and experienced tech insiders how tech companies and digital infrastructures contribute to oppressive systems. Explore effective strategies for advancing tech divestment at UCL to break ties with apartheid.
You will hear directly from researcher We’am Hamden (University of Cambridge), as well as former Cisco employees and campaigners from No Azure for Apartheid, who are actively challenging the industry’s complicity and harnessing its potential for justice and liberation.
For background:
- Check out No Azure for Apartheid -a movement of Microsoft workers demanding that Microsoft end its direct and indirect complicity in Israeli apartheid and genocide.
- Read our report about Cisco’s relationship with UCL and its complicity in Israel’s crimes of apartheid and genocide.
- Explore other complicity reports here.
All UCL staff (including lecturers, PhDs, post-docs, professional staff, researchers, and professors) are invited to sign the pledge committing to the BDS movement for Palestine.
Light Iftar snacks and prayer space available 6-6:30 PM; panel and workshop begin at 6:30 PM.
