Law on the Frontlines in Palestine – A Conversation with UN Rapporteur Francesca Albanese
Description
PRIO was pleased to invite to a seminar with Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories. In this seminar, Albanese shared her firsthand experiences and insights from her work, focusing on the significant legal and political challenges facing the UN in Palestine.
The seminar addressed several key issues, including the challenges surrounding the UN’s access to the occupied Palestinian territories, the humanitarian implications of the ban on UNRWA, and the ongoing cases before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) related to genocide and humanitarian aid access. Albanese also provided an update on the situation in Gaza and the West Bank, and reflected on the potential of removing Israel’s seat at the UN in response to violations of international human rights law.
The conversation was moderated by Jørgen Jensehaugen, Senior Researcher at PRIO.
This event was a collaboration between the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO) and Palestinakomiteen Norge.
