We’re grateful to share that Just Peace Advocates’ Executive Director, Karen Rodman, will be speaking at The Palestine Tribunal on Canadian Responsibility happening in Ottawa + livestreamed November 14-15. Karen will be speaking about the Charitable Sector.
The purpose of The Tribunal is “To document the multiple ways that Canadian entities – including government bodies, corporations, universities, charities, media, and other cultural institutions – have enabled and continue to enable the settler colonization and genocide of Palestinians, and to articulate what justice and reparations would require.
Disrupting the victim/expert dichotomy, testimonies by survivors from Palestine will be woven throughout the hearings as a source of expert knowledge on what justice would entail. A Panel of Eminent Elders will be invited to listen to the witness testimonies and draft a report outlining the Tribunal’s findings.”
The program: DAY ONE: Factual, Conceptual, Legal, and Historical Foundations 1 | Testimonies from Palestine 2 | Facets of Genocide 3 | The Legal Framework: Its Potential and Limitation 4 | Canada’s History of Enabling the Settler Colonization of Palestine
DAY TWO: Dimensions of Canadian Responsibility and Reparations 1 | Arms Transfers and Foreign Fighters 2 | Immigration and Refugee Blocks 3 | Foreign Aid and the Charitable Sector 4 | Corporations Including Universities 5 | Media and Cultural Institutions 6 | What Would Reparation Entail? Reflections from Palestinians in Conversation with Elders
