The Arab Center for Research and Policy Studies and the Institute for Palestine Studies are extending the deadline to submit applications to participate in third Annual Palestine Forum until 30 June 2024. The third round will be held in late January 2025.
The Annual Palestine Forum is an academic conference organized to create an interactive academic space for presenting new and innovative approaches and exchanging research and ideas related to Palestine. It is an opportunity for researchers who are already working on papers to present and discuss their work, and to learn about and benefit from new research trends in Palestine Studies.
Moreover, the Forum invites researchers and those interested in studies on Palestine but who do not wish to submit research papers to benefit from the presentations and discussions by registering to attend. Registration to attend without submitting a research paper will open in September 2024.
The Annual Palestine Forum does not have a specific annual theme, nor will researchers be assigned papers to write. However the Arab Center and the Institute for Palestine Studies will allocate a special space for research related to Israel’s ongoing genocidal war in Gaza and its local, regional and international implications, in addition to the questions raised by this war about international law and its effectiveness, genocide, and ethnic cleansing, spaciocide and culturicide, forced displacement and refugees, resistance movements, policies of control, the role of the Palestinian national movement and political parties, global solidarity movements, media coverage of the war, reconstruction, monitoring damage of specific sectors (Health, education, etc.), the re-settlement of the Gaza Strip, the history of Gaza, the destruction of Gaza’s archive, and other related topics related to Gaza more generally.
