In this Zoom forum, we will discuss the impact of colonialism on indigenous communities and its links to conflict, displacement and ecological destruction. Palestine will be used as a case in point that illustrates how modern colonialism is contributing to climate chaos. We will also look forward to what climate justice can mean if everyone's voices are heard. Panelists include local York activists, a professor at the University of Sheffield, and a Palestinian NGO worker in the West Bank.

1948 marked the ethnic cleansing of over half the Palestinian people from their homeland. Ever since, Palestinians have been struggling against settler-colonialism.

This discussion will bring together voices from all generations of the fight for Palestinian liberation, including acclaimed Israeli author and professor Ilan Pappé, a Palestinian activist in the West Bank, and campaigners involved in the international solidarity movement.
