🇵🇸🇮🇪 TRINITY COLLEGE DUBLIN DIVESTS FROM ISRAEL 🇵🇸🇮🇪
Trinity College Dublin will divest from Israeli universities and companies headquartered in Israel, the college announced today, after students staged a 5-day encampment last May calling on the university to cut ties with companies operating in Occupied Palestine. This will include ending all investments, commercial relationships, academic and research collaborations, and TCD will no longer facilitate Erasmus+ exchange agreements with Israeli universities.
TCD Students’ Union President Jenny Maguire said the university “had to be forced by student direct action to acknowledge Israel’s genocide.”
University professor David Landy said, “This is a significant day for Trinity and for Irish-Palestinian solidarity, and reflects the resolve of student and staff campaigners. However, it is difficult to feel glad when Israel’s genocide in Palestine continues.”
