Event  |  posted 1 October 2014

Join War on Want and Palestine Legal Action Network (PLAN) for a meeting and discussion with legal experts and campaigners: Where does international law stand on Israel?

2014 marks the 10 year anniversary of the International Court of Justice ruling on the illegality of Israel’s Wall. What have the effects of this ruling been on the ground? Can we utilize law to achieve justice for Palestinians and how can you support legal actions and join justice for Palestine campaigns?
