“Anti-Terror” Laws in the British and Philippine Context

Details

An educational discussion on the use of “anti-terror” legislation in the global context, and its impact on people’s movements.

This event seeks to build a deeper understanding of "anti-terror" regimes both here in the UK, and in the in the Philippines and how they are used by the state to disrupt people's movements and criminalise political expression and dissent.

In the UK most recently, we have seen the use of "anti-terror" legislation weaponised against the Palestinian solidarity movement. Researcher and member of the Anticolonial Communities Alliance Iida Käyhkö and Dr Asim Qureshi (Research Director at CAGE International) have been invited to discuss the histories of anti-terror legislation, and its impact on marginalised communities and international solidarity activists.

In the Philippines, the Anti-Terror Act (ATA) 2020 has played a key role in the government's counter-insurgency strategy aimed at ending the Filipino people's struggle for national and social liberation. In doing so it has been used to target civilians engaged in humanitarian and human rights work. Bernadette Ellorin from the International Coalition for Human Rights in the Philippines (ICHRP) will be speaking on the role of the ATA in the U.S. directed counter-insurgency strategy and in the suppression of political movements.
