SUMMARY:Global injustices and ethical scholarship: Education futures in tim
 e of genocide and precarity
DESCRIPTION:23 January 2024\, 13:00-14:00 GMT\nSpeakers: Professor Yusuf Sa
 yed\, Professor Maha Shuayb\, Jee Rubin\, Faculty of Education\, Universit
 y of Cambridge\nChair: Professor Pauline Rose\nAbout the seminar:\nIn the 
 midst of global conflicts\, surveillance\, and persistent violence\, acade
 mia faces ethical dilemmas concerning its role. As a genocide unfolds in P
 alestine\, academia struggles with constraints on academic freedom\, poten
 tially curtailing its ability to challenge authority and injustice. The su
 ppression of academic expression hampers critical research\, threatening t
 he foundation of scholarly pursuit and the university's mission. In this s
 eminar\, we re-examine and define ethical scholarship\, particularly regar
 ding the role of educational institutions amid escalating violence.\nRegis
 ter to join this seminar in person or online here.\nAbout the seminar seri
 es:\nJoin for the opening panel of this joint REAL Centre/Centre for Leban
 ese Studies seminar series. It aims to tackle multiple and interrelated in
 justices in the Global South\, which manifest in war and genocide\, and th
 eir interconnection with environmental degradation and resource conflict. 
 Education is a critical site for scrutinising and deconstructing systemic 
 injustice. This seminar series pays particular attention to the way in whi
 ch education is affected\, both as potential cause\, consequence and maint
 ainer of injustices\, as well as opportunities education offers for eradic
 ating inequities.\nThe series examines the underlying historical and polit
 ical processes that drive and perpetuate these injustices. Particular atte
 ntion is paid to the ways in which states in the Global North cause\, and 
 exacerbate\, such injustices\, perpetuating the colonial legacy in diverse
  contexts of the Global South. This series explores how the unfolding geno
 cide and long-term occupation of Palestine highlight the inadequacy of the
  global system in addressing these atrocities. It explores how the global 
 system propped up the system of Apartheid in South Africa and how global s
 upport for human rights was key to bringing out an end to the system in 19
 94. Likewise\, the intensifying turmoil in Sudan serves as a poignant illu
 stration of the injustices perpetuated within an inequitable global system
 . Deploying an intersectional lens across diverse contexts\, this seminar 
 series animates discussion about key education challenges\, including viol
 ence against girls and women\, racism\, colonialism\, displacement\, and a
 dvocates for ethical and committed scholarship.\nMore about the series and
  how to register for all of the seminars.\n&nbsp\;
