Webinar: Palestinian Health and Human Rights Under Occupation
Life for Palestinians living in the occupied territories is at a new crisis point. More Palestinians died in the West Bank in 2022 than in any year since 2006, and 2023 is shaping up to be even more deadly. After decades of impunity for countless human rights violations, Israel continues to control Palestinian movement, seize Palestinian land, and raid Palestinian cities, while enabling the violence and incitement of a rapidly expanding settler population. Dr. Yara Asi is a Palestinian-American global health researcher who returned from doing field work in Palestine in October. In this webinar, she gives a first-hand account of the situation in the West Bank and the effects on the health and well-being of Palestinians.
