Israeli academia during the genocide: supporting the state through words and silences

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In the one year that I spent in Israel as a student of public health from October 2023 to September 2024, I was stunned and disappointed by the ignorance and inaction of the academic institutions towards a state-sponsored genocide as the violence in Gaza escalated incredibly. Based on personal experiences and published information, this reflection attempts to show the Israeli academia's failure to provide an objective critique of the state's action while contributing to the suppression of dissenting voices, thereby failing to uphold ethical responsibilities.
